Born in Springfield, Tennessee,[1] he moved to Chicago at the age of six. For most of his life he played piano at rent parties in the city, although he also lived in East St. Louis for a while in the early 1920s. In 1929 he made his only series of recordings for Vocalion Records. These included "Gettin' Dirty Just Shakin' That Thing", renowned for its raunchy "signifying" lyrics, and "Head Rag Hop", featuring talking by Tampa Red and Frankie Jaxon.[2] "Head Rag Hop" also was released on the Brunswick Collector Series label, which read: "Head Rag Hop", Romeo Nelson, recorded September 1929. On the b-side of this 78 rpm record is "Wilkins Street Stomp", by Speckled Red. The record was part of a Brunswick album titled: Boogie Woogie Piano, Historic Recordings by Pioneer Piano Men. Also featured were: Montana Taylor, Speckled Red, and Cow Cow Davenport.[3] Nelson died of renal failure in May 1974.[4] References1. ^{{cite web|author=Eugene Chadbourne |url=http://www.allmusic.com/artist/romeo-nelson-mn0000238952 |title=Romeo Nelson | Biography & History |publisher=AllMusic |date= |accessdate=2015-10-05}} 2. ^Peter J.
