About This Item
Sonny Boy Williamson was one of the most inspiring harmonica players in blues history. Though he took his name from another well-known harmonica player, no one really sounded like him. Williamson developed his own signature harmonica style, always showing a metronome-like timing and an endlessly inventive technique. This consists of Sonny Boy's complete debut LP, Down and Out Blues, originally released in 1959 on the Chess Records subsidiary Checker.
