    Absolutely, Sonny boy Williamson the second is who you saw. The original never went to England. Rice miller who stole the name of the original blues master SBW was a master in his own right, but lied to the English guys that he was the original blues Harmonica player. They had no reason to doubt him.
    He represents a line of Harp players descending from SBW 1, SBW2, |James Cotton, Paul butterfield, and John Mayall.

    SBW 2 no question the other one was dead already.:wink:

    It wasn't until some time later the conflicting stories were resolved, not to take away from his talent, he was awsome in his own right. I heard he stabbed some guy in London and left the country unanounced in a hurry.

    An Eagles fan...all righty then. I love firing up their Farewell 1 Tour DVD...still great sound. And a lot more sobber these days. Saw there last traveling concert here in Maui.

    Clapton is my blues man though...Unless you go back to Brubeck and company.

    I'm an ex pro blues/rock/funk player intent on moving to Cebu, north in Daanbantayan! This is onloy because I nothing of The Philippines, and I want to retire on/near a beach to paint, snorkel, and play guitar! Can you tell me what the cost of instruments and amplifiers is. I have been selling all my wonderful stuff, Strats, Martin, Les Paul, Marshall and Boogie Amps, just because shipping them seems so intimidating. Of course ai am keeping my main axes. I'll jam with anyone. I plan to start by staying at Skip's Beach Resort as a base from which to learn about locations and decide where to live. Cebu is attractive to me because there is no malaria, and the rural plus the city seems to offer the best of both worlds. I would appreciate any and all comments, opinions, suggestions regarding best places to live, obtain info, etc. I plan to reside forever, becoming a true expat. Are there any club venues known that cater to Da Bluze!? Does the factory in Cebu also make electric guitars?
