Answer to Question 1

 Shines sings From Dark till Dawn in an earlier blues style of solo male singer self-accompanied on acoustic (unamplified) guitar versus
 Magic Sam (Sam Maghett) sings You Don't Love Me with a modern electric blues band, which has a much tighter overall sound/structure and a timbre (instrumentation) of lead/rhythm guitar/vocal, drums and bass. The performance is at a much faster tempo than Shines' From Dark till Dawn.

Answer to Question 2

 Same 12-bar stanza structure
 Blue notes prominent in all the examples
 Polyrhythms between singer and accompanying instruments
 Syncopations
 Driving, rhythmic beat
 Emotional, truthful lyrics
 Simple, predictable chord progressions typically used in blues (I or I b7, IV or IV b7, V or V7) except for I Need 100 which uses a one-string, non-chord instrument, the diddly bow
