9/23/2023
Show 36 - Sonny Boy Williamson II Part 2 - We continue to pay homage to Alec Miller or Sonny Boy Williamson. Last week I talked about Sonny Boy’s early years in the South, meeting and learning from bluesmen like Robert Johnson and Howlin’ Wolf. His career took a leap forward in 1949 when he moved to West Memphis and scored a regular gig on Radio KWEM and lived wth Wolf. Sonny Boy brought some of his blues acquaintances to his radio show, names like Elmore James, Robert Nightyhawk and Arthur Big Boy Crudup. And he began his recording career with Trumpet Records. This in turn brought Sonny Boy to Chicago as the Chess Brothers bought the remnants of Trumpet’s library when they went broke. Broadcast on Otago Access Radio www.oar.org.nz
