Well you should probably start with something that is Blues-Rock. You will probably be more accustomed to listening to rock than blues so you can understand it better; then you can work your way back to hardcore blues. Clapton/Cream is always a good start. Listen to as much Duane Allman as you can. Buy "The Fillmore Concerts" by the Allman Brothers Band, best 10$ you will ever spend.
