00:00Little Milton, born James Milton Campbell Jr. in Inverness, Mississippi in 1934, was a soul,
00:12blues, and R&B singer and guitarist who enjoyed popularity during the 1960s.
00:20Little Milton made his first recordings in 1953 for Delta Records with Little Milton's Boogie
00:27and Boogie Woogie Woogie Baby.
00:33Milton would remain a minor figure in R&B until he scored a big soul hit in 1965 with We're Gonna Make It.
00:43The hit would appear on a full-length album of the same name in 1965,
00:48the first of several fine, full-length albums that Milton would record in the 1960s and early 1970s.
01:02In 1972, the fine album Grits Ain't Groceries was released.
01:09The album was a blend of soul and funk, which saw Milton moving away from the straight-ahead blues sound
01:24that he had become known for earlier in his career.
01:28The title track became a minor hit.
01:31Milton would consolidate his new, funky sound on his next release,
01:37If Walls Could Talk, from 1970.
01:41The album proved to be another gem, featuring fine tracks such as
01:46The Title Track and Your Precious Love,
01:50a cover of Guitar Slim's Things I Used to Do.
01:55Milton continued to record until the early 90s
02:00and recorded several more solid albums in the 70s and early 80s,
02:04such as
02:05Waiting for Little Milton
02:07from 1973,
02:10Blues and Soul from 1974,
02:14Friend of Mine from 1976,
02:17and Walk in the Back Streets from 1981.
02:21Milton died in 2005.
