I'm just never sure if these are jazz or blues or what, I'm not good at genres - LOL. But I think it fits /s/blues.

Wikipedia calls him boogy-blues, I'd agree with that I guess. I'm no expert by any means, but I think jazz is typically a lot of horns.

I always like posting music, but get confused what falls under what, so often will just post to a generic music sub because I don't want to be laughed at - LOL.

George Thorogood recorded "One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer" for his 1977 debut album, George Thorogood and the Destroyers. His version is a medley of a blues song written by Rudy Toombs and recorded by Amos Milburn in 1953 and a 1950 John Lee Hooker song, "House Rent Boogie", which serves as a backstory to explain the singer's situation. According to Hooker, "He [Thorogood] told me he was gonna do that [and] I said, 'Okay, go ahead'".
Here's a live version of George with guest Elvin Bishop.
