Chicago Slim Blues Band c.1980
- 17 years ago
The Chicago Slim Blues Band performing at Triton College near Chicago in 1981.
This band never got much respect, but I liked them. They reminded me of Hound Dog Taylor & The Houserockers, not so much in the music, but in the attitude - high energy, fun, and not too "careful" about how they played the music, which is as it should be IMO.
The band is:
Chicago Slim - vocals, harmonica
Bumblebee Bob Novak - guitar
Tom Mitz - bass
Cadillac Sam Burton - drums
Cadillac Sam played in the Muddy Waters Junior Band in the late '50s and early '60s; at the time he was known as "Savage Boy"!
