My friend and I were in U. S. Navy in 1961 near San Diego and he played Jimmy Reed on his record player for hours on end.He was from Birmingham ,Alabama and already enjoyed Reed's great harmonica and guitar licks.I got hooked on blues from that and only have 65 of Jimmy Reed's songs now. I listen to his songs often and still get blues with chills when I hear his guitar and harmonica licks.truely real blues. Respectfully , Old Ed

Anytime - ReBeat. I can tell you love blues. You probably know but if not put a search on "the Blues Highway for some interesting blues information and maybe a chance to share your knowledge of Jimmy Reed's fame there too. ReBeat if anyone listens to Reed's songs "Cold Chills" and "High and Lonesome" they will hear some of his excellent harmonica and guitar blues licks.Practice good and when you can play and sing like that I'll drive the tour bus- deal - Respectfully Old ED
