Default Electric Blues

It's just a genre that intrigues me and often when I hear something described as Blues it's a sound I like, but my ignorance of what really constitutes The Blues is holding me back from finding stuff.
I don't want to just trawl through wikipedia because a lot of their classification seems a bit off.

So any essential albums I should look into? Would be much appreciated...

I like just about anything by Buddy Guy - particular favorites being early Chess records; "Feels Like Rain" or "Damn Right I Got The Blues"; and the enigmatic but beautiful "Sweet Tea"

Also Elmore James is wonderful, and the Leon Russell-produced sides by Freddy King
