Edward Thompson was a native of Alabama, and he may have known and played with Ed Bell and Pillie Bolling at some point in his life. He traveled to New York City in 1929 and cut six songs in one session. All of these were issued over three records. The recordings were mastered by Gennett, and either sold or leased to Paramount. This recording had Thompson billed as "Tenderfoot Edwards". Nothing else about him is known.

edward thompson really has a cool style ! nice high single note phrases answered by low end runs ! he is an original player but i can tell his influences ! i love the way these artists styles rubbed off on each other ! that is what love and respect for each other does , huh ! anyhow , these are my insights and observations only ! sometimes i ramble on ! thanks for the great recording !
