• Lyhyt kuvaus JOHN LEE ‘SONNY BOY’ WILLIAMSON is widely regarded as the pioneer of the Blues harmonica as a solo instrument, and his style was a huge influence on postwar performers. • He has been called “The father of modern Blues harp”. • One of the most recorded Blues musicians of his era (late 1930s to late 40s), he was closely associated with Chicago producer Lester Melrose and Bluebird Records. • His most well-known songs include ‘Good Morning, School Girl’, ‘Sugar Mama’, ‘Early In The Morning’, ‘Stop Breaking Down’ and ‘Shake The Boogie’, all included herein, the latter being his biggest commercial hit. • In an attempt to capitalise on Williamson’s fame and reputation, Aleck “Rice” Miller began performing as Sonny Boy Williamson in the early 40s; John Lee Williamson subsequently became known as “Sonny Boy Williamson 1”, or “The Original Sonny Boy”.
