Check out anything by the Black Keys. They are blues-rock, specifically if you are more blues oriented, the album Brothers.

Robert Johnson is a necessity.


And my personal fave. Two super awesome chicks from Vancouver. Amazing live. Guitarist is gorgeous.

Leadbelly FTW.  Seriously, look him up, shit's about as real of a blues life as you could ever live. 

Here's jus a little snippet from his Wiki you might find interesting... 

In January 1918 he was imprisoned a second time, this time after killing one of his relatives, Will Stafford, in a fight over a woman...  In 1925 he was pardoned and released...  after writing a song appealing to Governor Pat Morris Neff for his freedom.

Dude killed a relative over a woman and got pardoned because he wrote a song for the governor.  Holy shit.  That's just the tip of the iceberg!
