This divey Virginia-Highland blues bar behind a neon alligator is one of the nation's top spots for the world's best down-and-dirty blues. Taj Mahal, Rufus Thomas and Charles Brown have all graced this stage and regulars Sandra Hall, House Rocker Johnson and the Shadows usually play weekly. It's named after Georgia's own legendary bluesman, 'Blind' Willie McTell.
