About this ebook

Earl "Lil' Choo-Choo" Johnson le home at the age of 10, with only his father's guitar, and stepped into the world of the Delta blues. A guitar prodigy, his music led him to play with blues legends like Robert Johnson, Charley Pa on, Son House, Howlin' Wolf, and Muddy Waters.

It encompasses the heyday of Delta blues, the birth of rock and roll, the Bri sh invasion, the blues revival of the 1960s, and beyond. Bryan Krull has been a history teacher for the past eight years at the high school and college level. He earned his Ph.D from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, as well as degrees from the University at Buffalo and the University at Albany (NY). He currently lives near Rochester, New York.
