BIOGRAPHY
Born in Monticello, Mississippi, Smith migrated to Chicago in the
mid-1950s. In the early 1960s he bagan performing in clubs, learning
guitar from J. B. Lenoir (his first cousin), Robert Lockwood, Jr., and
Hubert Sumlin.
After years playing in clubs all over the world, a demo tape Smith
recorded became the album Tell Me How You Like It, released by the
Texas-based Grits record label. His next release in the United Kingdom
was Addressing the Nation with the Blues for JSP Records. In 1995, Smith
retired from his job at Economy Folding Box Company after twenty-five
years, allowing him to focus fully on music.
Delmark Records boss Bob Koester observed, "There's a mellowness there
that is disappearing in all but B.B. King".
