Biography

He played guitar at Theresa's, a club in Chicago, between 1974 and 1980. He was influenced by Muddy Waters' former sideman, Sammy Lawhorn, who taught him to play slide guitar. He joined the Chicago Blues All-Stars of Willie Dixon in 1979, then the Muddy Waters's band until the latter's death in 1983.

In 1995 he released, The Real Deal, with songwriting and singing techniques showing the influence of both Dixon and Slim.[3]
