Description
Sonny Boy Williamson was an enigma in the modern blues world of the early 1960s, a real true example of the travelling blues man who rambled and hoboed across America playing music, gambling, womanising and drinking heavily along the way. Twenty-six tracks including all twelve titles from the classic "Down and Out Blues" album which reached No. 20 in the UK charts.
Herein are gems such as "One Way Out", "Fattening Frogs For Snake" and as the title of this collection suggests the hit "Don't Start Me Talkin'", which has been covered by The Doobie Brothers, Gary Moore, Rory Gallagher and even The New York Dolls.
Session musicians include Muddy Waters, Otis Spann, Jimmy Rogers, Willie Dixon and more.
