This is a great player....Is this his only recorded song?

who is this guy?
he has a voice to match sonhouse & his bottleneck style is as good if not better than my #1 slide player mississippi fred mcdowell.
i throught i knew old blues people but i never heard this guy before. Anyone care to let me know more on him please
