Furry Lewis "Furry's Blues

This is some SICK guitar playing.

In 1927, Lewis cut his first records in Chicago for the Vocalion label. In 1972 he was the featured performer in the Memphis Blues Caravan, which included the likes of Bukka White, Sleepy John Estes and Hammy Nixon, Memphis Piano Red, Sam Chatmon, and Mose Vinson.
Before he died, Lewis opened twice for The Rolling Stones, played on Johnny Carson's The Tonight Show, and had a part in a Burt Reynolds movie, W.W. and the Dixie Dancekings (1975).
