I had never heard of this guy until today I saw in my news feed that he had died on Dec. 3. Born in Carthage, Mississippi and moved to Milwaukee at a young age and became a local blues fixture. Hardly ever play further away from home than Chicago but had played with Buddy Guy and other Chicago blues legends. Tended to shy away from the limelight and turned down offers to tour saying he didn't like to travel or else his name would be well known.

Billy Strings does Grateful Dead Listen to him playing lead on this one starting about the 3:15 mark And this one around the 3 minute mark
I heard a DJ the other day say that he didn't like the Eagles. If I had time I'd have driven to the studio and slapped him!
