A moment of silence for one of the greatest bulesmen of all time...
 
I saw him play in 1971 at Southern Illinois University on the quad.Even then,he was an old man, sitting in his chair and playing that one-chord boogie stomp blues.
Listen to Boogie Chillin for an understanding why Clapton,Jagger,Bonnie Rait and so many others went to school on this man's style.

I wish I'd seem him play. One of the last real bluesmen; RIP.
