I picked up a copy of Commander Cody's "Deep in the Heart of Texas" and they ha "Little Sally Walker", which seemed kinda nice so I did a search on iTunes for "Little Sally Walker" and stumbled on Son Seals. One or two of you had mentioned him but I hadn't looked him up yet. If you got 99 cents, give it a listen. It smokes. I get goose bumps, which only happens on really,really,really good tunes. He has a sad life story and passes away from Diabetes complications a few years ago. Here's a tune (not complete) and some info on his life. "Little Sally Walker" is the perfect example of my favorite music.

I ended up buying two of his albums, "Nothin but the Truth", and "Bad Axe". HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Good one! Son Seals is not as well known as some blues artists but he's great..take some BB King stir in some chicken pickin..yeah!

Sons Seals was also the drummer on Albert King's Live Wire/Blues Power recording on Stax back in the late '60s. If you listen, you can hear similarities in his guitar style that jibe with Albert's. I really liked a few of his CDs on Alligator back in the '80s.
