This is a killer jam! Rumor has it that Janis died the day before she was scheduled to lay down the vocals for it. Frankly, I love it just as is. 
OMG, a few years ago, I was directing a show & this song was on repeat in my car the entire time. There are lyrics, but I dig this version....

And now... just 'cuz I called these bass-tastic artists in to the local public radio station (it's Nightside Jazz & Blues, sick of hearing the same crap)....
Victor f*cking Wooten! -- He used to be Bela Fleck's bass player... jesus, what a talent....
Esperanza Spalding & Herbie Hancock (himself honored) honoring Sting... couldn't find what I was looking for from E.S., must make food....
This is brief & beautiful.

My dad gave me a live Stan Getz CD. It's freakin awesome, I must say. It was the first CD I listened to when I moved into my new home.
Nice list, by the way.

You're posting from a list of some sort?? Noooo....I just can't stand Thorogood.... LMAO
(Personal opinion, that's all.)
Yes, list.
If you go to the following URL (which VV's software has scrambled somewhat--I think you have to be on the YouTube.com website to see the list)
You will see the YouTube video of Etta James singing "At Last." (Number 1 on the list.) To the right of that on the screen is the printed list of the top 100 Blues songs, according to whomever made this list. Each song has sort of a logo, and if you click on that the video of the song comes up and plays.
