Lowell Fulson, blues guitarist, singer and songwriter, was born 31 March 1921 in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and died 6 March 1999 in Long Beach, California. Fulson's recording career started in 1946 and lasted well into the 1990s. His best known songs are Three O'Clock Blues (1948), Reconsider Baby (1954, later covered by Elvis Presley) and Tramp (1967, later covered as a duet by Otis Redding & Carla Thomas). For his 1960s recordings on the Kent Records label he used the alias Lowell Fulsom.

Few blues artists have worn as many hats as Lowell Fulson. He's got a massive discography behind him and an even more massive talent for experimentation. He's tried everything from acoustic and rural to urban and electric to R&B, and he's still going strong. Listen for a few minutes to Fulson's dead-on delivery and pristine guitar playing and you'll understand why his career has spanned half a century - few can sing the blues so well yet sound free of self-pity at the same time.
