Blind Blake Back Biting Bee Blues lp

Stylish & swanky as his peaked double breasted suit, Arthur Blake makes his guitar boogie-oogie-woogie like a fast piano left hand. He can get an entire band arrangement out of one instrument, sometimes sounding like 3 different people playing. More likely to've made a living from Charleston parlor parties than street busking, he made many Paramount sides. In fact, between Blake & Blind Lemon Jefferson, they kept the former chair manufacturers afloat through half the depression.
