Unlike Jazz where there are a lot of live albums available from the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s, there are few early live blues albums before the 1960s.
To help understand the development, I’ve a post on the history of the blues through the birth, deaths and careers of the major blues artists.
Lightnin’ Hopkins on Stage is an album that collects together recordings from 1946 to 1949.
It sounds like a live album but I’m not sure as I haven’t seen any venues or dates mentioned in my research. This website about Lightnin’ Hopkins was the most help.
