Just me and my steel-bodied guitar, and a slide on my ring finger. That's about it, not even a guitar pick!
Influences
Willie Brown, Charlie Patton, Robert Johnson, Gishie Wiley, hell just roll off the list of all the Delta Blues musicians that were around in the late 20's. I knew 'em all, and I guess we all kind of influenced each other.
Mostly we were influenced by the pain and suffering we all endured at the time, and that our families had been through. Our heritage was slavery, and in the 20's we didn't have it much better than the slaves did. They say that the best writing comes from pain and suffering, and maybe that's why our blues music has endured so long.
You ain't never had the Blues, and I hope you never will.

Some of the greatest music ever to grace God's Green Earth.
Good Lord, it's been a mighty long time since I've had the strength to grip the neck of my steel-bodied guitar and sing my blues.
I have been called the Father of the Delta Blues, though I would probably give that title to Mr. Charley Patton and maybe not so much to myself, but maybe that's just because Charley made so much more money than me at it. It's too bad he got taken out, back in the 30's, he was a good friend, as close to me as Willie Brown. I also knew Robert Johnson real well, I always liked that boy, he was always polite and never got in any trouble.
As for me, I'm still around after all these many long years, so old now I can't hardly remember the time when I was young and had the strength of my convictions. It's only through God's grace that I and my music have survived.
It seems that most of my music that is available for listening is from the 1960s, so I put up this page to showcase some of my earlier work from the Prewar era. Enjoy this humble offering and God Bless you.

"The Sweet Hollywaiians have probably the best feel for this 20's music of any string band working today. They manage the rare feat of sounding relaxed even when their playing is hot, are top notch musicians with tasteful arrangements and a full, rich, warm sound.Plus, they have a nice gamut of tunes, from King Nawahi to Giovanni Vicari to Bobby Leecan. See them live, if you can, for an unforgettable experience. If you can't, buy their Cds!" ~ Terry Zwigoff

John 3:14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: 15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
