Billy Boy Arnold

On recomendation from the SPAH session about Billy Boy Arnold, I picked up the Jasmine Records "Billy Boy Arnold - Come Back Baby, I Wish You Would" CD (from Charlie at Bluebeatmusic.com, of course). 21 recordings from the Cool, Checker and Vee-Jay days, 1953-57. With folks like Bo Diddley, Otis Spann, Willie Dixon, Henry Gray, Fred Below, Sunnyland Slim, et al. Great stuff here. Got to see Arnold as part of one of Mark Hummel's blowout shows just a couple of years ago. He'll turn 86 come Sep. 16th, and may be the last surviving Chicago great from his era.
