I love the blues. I love to listen to SRV, but I have to wonder, is SRV a great blues singer, or a great blues player?

The songs wouldn't be complete without him singing, but for me the guitar takes center stage with SRV. The vocals are just accompaniment.

Some bluesmen stand out apart from the music. The emotion is in their voices/singing.

Just thinking out loud. I'd never really thought about it until this thread.
