Little Mack Simmons is a criminally ignored blues vocalist and harmonica player that has been around since the 70's and certainly deserves a wider audience. Little Mack has a soulful, rough edged tenor voice and his arragements of both the blues classics and his own original songs bear his own distinctive stamp.

He's a versatile performer who is at home doing country blues, urban blues, jazz and even a few R&B songs. This collection of his earliest recordings in the Seventies and Eightes, on Electro-Fi is an essential recording for any hard-core blues fan. ~Gavin B.

Thanks! These rather obscure bluesmen are a bonus for me! Cheers from Spain...

Little Mac Simmons' earliest recordings go back to the early 60's and C.J. records, not the 70's or 80's or Electro-Fi. Get your information straight.
