Chico Chism was a member of Howlin' Wolf's band in the later years of Wolf's career. Chism was a fixture on the Chicago blues scene for many years before relocating to Phoenix, AZ c. late 1980s, where he became one of the leading figures in that area's blues scene. In 2000 he played the Chicago Blues Festival as part of a Tribute to Howlin' Wolf. Here he perfroms a short version of one of Wolf's classic songs.
RIP Chico, a truely sweet man. I got to play with him a bit later in his life, wish I had the oportunity a few years before I did and he was getting ill, but you wouldn't find a nicer man. I miss you greatly Chico.
