Have you tried Rory Block? Excellent slide player, She's a little more country blues but she does an imitation of Charley Patton that is incredible. A couple Robert Johnson tunes, "Love IN Vain" that are really nice. Mama's Blues is a good set I think it's on Rounder. Nice bluesy voice too and she doesn't try to force her voice like a lot of the females do. Joanna Conner is good, high energy stuff. I aleays thought Bonnie Raitt in her younger days played a good slide although a little repititious she was always tasteful.
