He played and sang blues in a rough, energetic style. He made a series of recordings for Bluebird Records from 1939[3] through 1942. He regularly played with his friend Robert Petway.[4] His voice is heard in the background on Petway's recording of "Boogie Woogie Woman" (1942).[5] McClennan's singles in this period included "Bottle It Up and Go", "New Highway No. 51", "Shake 'Em on Down", and "Whiskey Head Woman".[5] Several of his songs have been covered by other musicians, including "Cross Cut Saw Blues" (covered by Albert King) and "My Baby's Gone" (Moon Mullican).[6] McClennan's "I'm a Guitar King" was included in the 1959 collection The Country Blues, issued by Folkways Records. McClennan died of bronchopneumonia in Chicago, Illinois, on May 9, 1961.[1][7] Citation"He had a different style of playing a guitar", Big Bill Broonzy said. "You just make the chords and change when you feel like changing"[5] John Fahey's "Screaming and Hollerin' the Blues" contains an interview with Booker Miller, a contemporary of Charlie Patton's, in which Miller mentioned someone who is most likely Tommy McClennan, though Miller did not know his name: "... and I saw another fella he put some records out, they (him and Willie Brown) be together, but he be by himself when I see him, they called him "Sugar"... I ain't never known him as nothing but Sugar, he put out a record called Bottle Up and Go... I sold him my guitar." Bob Dylan covered Tommy McClennan's "Highway 51" on his self-titled debut album in 1962. See also
