Finders Records
Finders Records is my favorite recorded music store in the entire world. They have the best blues section I have ever seen, including the many places I have visited in Chicago.

Firehorse
I am not really a country music fan, but these guys are the greatest. JT Monroe, my guitar teacher, backed up Kid Rock. You may have seen him on guitar during the VH1 Show he did in 2002, I believe... It is a real blues based country sound. Their song "Wheels of Justice" is a true story. You may see these guys around the Atomic Athletic warehouse occasionally.
