I have been playing shuffles until they are coming out my eyeballs. I can no longer think straight, so I need your help.
Could you give me some names of blues standards that are not shuffles that I may work on something different?
Preferably something I might/would need to know at a Jam, as I am trying to fill out the void in my song repertoire.

Kingo,
Off the top of my head, I can't think of anything. My mind's a blank. But, how about just re-working a lot of your shuffle stuff into straight time?
Oh yeah, I've just remembered. I've started to tinker with Johnny B Good - steal it from those pesky guitarists!
That opening riff starts on ~4(3), which I expect you know anyway.

work on little wing and purple haze they are often played at jams and most harp players can play them right off.

Listen to any cd by Jean Jaques Milteau for inspiration away from the shuffle groove
