It wouldn't be exactly the same, but recreating that sound with EQ wouldn't be too difficult. Cut out most of the low end, then maybe take another notch out of the mids, but leave a little bit of top end for clarity and sparkle.

If you're using software, I'd recommend PSP Vintage Warmer. It's got a lovely warm saturation which will distort your voice ever-so-slightly 9if used minimally) to get the kind of bluesy tone that I think you're after.
