Ninety Nine - Sonny Boy Williamson II - Acoustic Blues - TAB/Lesson avl

TAB/Lesson Sonny Boy Willaimson II, aka “Rice Miller“ recorded this song in 1951 at a brisk tempo but slowed it down as a solo harp piece in the 60ies (nice pics). Key of E standard tuning In the background you see the cover of the bootleg LP on which Sonny Boy’s solo version is, among other recordings of the 1963 American Folk and Blues Festival btw, Sonny Boy was not as old as he claimed to be. He claimed to be the “original Sonny Boy Williamson“ and had to lie about his age to support this claim. He looked and acted as he was in his seventies but was only in his early 50ies when he visited europe in 1963-65 I’m playing a mahogany/adi spruce Grand Concert 000 made by Texan David Newton in 2011 D’Addario EJ26 strings #acousticblues #daddystovepipe #co
