I like it, and I'm a blues guy and a blues snob. You have the skill. Some notes , just in my opinion though.....

- learn what space is. you don't have to have "some note" playing at any given moment. sometimes you need to breathe the set up the next phrase.
- chops are good, but I'd recommend listening to some SRV a bit, just too add that "non playing" element into your style, as well as some extra licks and chops you could incorporate.
- although I like your playing, a lot of it seems a tad mechanical and a little cold. Bends could be a little more soulful, slower and with more tension; you could add more contrast - as in slow and soulful right into the fast parts close together, etc; a little more dynamics, as in, not every note the same volume, some quiet to build up, some loud ones to accent, and a lot in between. Play like you'd give a good speech: up, down, loud, quiet, slow, fast, cold, emotional - and all spliced together so they compliment each other.

Overall, it's very cool. Take you playing to the next level to make it very kick-ass though. Keep posting though! You're already better that most wannabe guitar player, many actual guitar player, and every single Guitar Hero zombie :):)

jezza, I'm a Bluser myself and I thought it was quite well done. dgonz has some good advice for you. He's referring to your phrasing and dynamics which develops with experience. My blues got "blusier" as I got older. You certainly have talent.
