About the artist

Sonny Boy Williamson (John Lee Curtis Williamson, 30 March 1914 — 1 June 1948) was an American blues harmonica player, and the first to use the name Sonny Boy Williamson. Career He was born near Jackson, Tennessee in 1914. His original harmonica recordings were considered to be in the country blues style, but he soon demonstrated skill at making harmonica a lead instrument for the blues, and popularized the instrument for the first time in a more urban blues setting. He has been called "the father of modern blues harp".
