28. There is no doubt that the British Blues explosion helped
The Stones, The Yardbirds, The Animals, The Who and a lot more bands re-introduced a hell of a lot of people to a hell of a lot of people. But my problem with it is when the listeners had no idea that the song they were listening to was written by one of the great blues players because the song had someone else's name on it.

The only two that really get to me is "You need love" and "Dazed and confused". Although "In my time of Dying" was an old song that they put their name on also.
