Call to Check Stock: 707.364.1709

"Homesick James was a Chicago Blues artist known for his mastery of slide guitar. He was a longtime member of Elmore James' band, the Broom Dusters, backing Elmore from 1955 to 1963, contributing to such classics as Dust My Broom, The Sky is Crying, and Roll and Tumble. Little is known about his early life. He developed a self-taught style of slide guitar through playing at local dances in his teens. He claimed to have played with Yank Rachell, Sleepy John Estes, Blind Boy Fuller, Sonny Boy Williamson II and Big Joe Williams, among others, and to have been acquainted with Robert Johnson. He also claimed to be the older cousin of Elmore James, to have bought James his first guitar, and to have taught him how to play slide."
