I’ve had a guitar since I was 12. I’ve picked at it from time to time but would like to get serious with it. I’d like to know what the best blues songs to practice with would be. Song names and the original artists who performed them would be grateful. If not blues songs, what are the best songs in general to play to progress in guitar skill. Please and thank you.

I picked up some blue playstations today, but my homie said he got a random text from someone he doesnt know and it said not to take blue pills, but it didn’t specify as to which kind. So does anybody have any information? I live in SoCal by the way.
