BIOGRAPHY
This Richard Pryor is the late great Snooky Pryor’s son, aka “Rip Lee”.
Rip was born April 17, 1958 in Chicago, IL. He moved with his family at
the age of ten to the southern tip of Illinois in a small town, Ullin 40
miles south of Carbondale. At a young age Rip picked up discarded
harmonicas his dad left laying around the house and start blowing them
behind his dad’s blues records. In high school he played guitar in a soul
band.
By 1992, he joined forces with his brother Earl Pryor to form a blues
band where he played guitar and harmonica. To get more experience, Rip
went on to play gigs and record with his dad and front his on bands. As a
result of this exposure Rip recorded his own CD “Pitch a Boogie
Woogie”.
On 8 of 11 tracks, Rip is playing all instruments except piano, which is
handled by Bob Pina and one track is recorded ‘live’ at the Cavalier Club
in Cairo, Illinois. To have someone performing 1950's-styled Chicago blues
in the new millennium is a delight and in Rip’s case you’d have to call it
authentic. Rip currently do not have a band formed, but will play as a one
man band or use provided musician. Rip goal is to spread his blues around
the world.
