Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

Alcoholic. Epileptic. Technically challenged. Jimmy Reed nevertheless overcame these roadblocks to become perhaps the most successful R&B/pop cross-over artist of the '50s with songs like Big Boss Man and Bright Lights Big City. Musicians family members and those whose lives Reed touched offer revealing and heart-wrenching insights into this now-revered bluesman. While Reed's alcoholism was no secret its effect on his musicianship is less understood. This engaging book tells the real story that until now has not been told.

Biografía del autor:
