“Cold, Cold Feeling” by T-Bone Walker
Born Aaron Thibeaux Walker (T-Bone is a corruption of his middle name) on May 28, 1910 in Linden, Texas. Both of his parents (Movelia Jimerson and Rance Walker) were musicians and his stepfather, Marco Washington, taught him to play the guitar, ukulele, banjo, violin, mandolin, and piano.
He left school aged 10 and was a professional performer on the blues circuit by the time he was 15.
He is the source of the modern urban style of both playing and singing the blues.
Everyone from BB King to Chuck Berry to Eric Clapton has been influenced by T-Bone.
This track, probably my favourite piece of music (any genre) is from “The Complete Imperial Recordings, 1950-1954”.
