Chicago Blues singer/guitarist John Littlejohn's reputation among his peers and blues aficionados is done an injustice by his meager recorded output as a bandleader. Littlejohn began making a name for himself around Gary, Ind., and Chicago in the early 1960s with his liquid-toned slide guitar work and impassioned singing; he worked as a sideman for Donny Hathaway and cut his first record as a leader in 1968. Never incorporating rock and Funk as his peers Buddy Guy or Son Seals did, his sound remained resolutely rooted in the Chicago Blues of the '50s and '60s. Littlejohn was a mainstay in the Windy City's Southside clubs, and he recorded sporadically, cutting around a half dozen records before his death in 1994.
Carey Bell started playing with his stepfather, piano player and vocalist Lovey Lee in Mississippi. In 1956 at age 19, came to Chicago with the Lovey Lee Blues Band. Played harmonica and bass guitar for other blues musicians from the late 1950s to the early 1970s before embarking on a solo career. Played with Muddy Waters on and off at least between late 1970 and 1974, and later with Willie Dixon's Chicago Blues All-Stars, among many others.
Personnel: John Littlejohn (vocals, guitar); Carey Bell (vocals, harmonica); Larry Burton (guitar); Willie Kent (bass); Casey Jones (drums, vocals).

Hmm, John Littlejohn certainly has something. All right, he may not be a first name (and maybe a bit too "Chicago" for me, but this is another issue) but somehow he stands out. Thanks for posting, RR!
