- "When Rice Miller, aka Sonny Boy Williamson, made these intimate, casual recordings in 1963, he was already (probably) 66 years old. Most of his long career was over; only two years later he would die in his little apartment in Helena, Arkansas. He was recognized as a giant throughout the blues world, as a harmonica player, vocalist, songwriter, prolific recording artist, live performer, and wildly colorful personality. Starting in 1951 and continuing into the '60s, Sonny Boy made some of the most influential blues records of all time - Help Me, Eyesight To The Blind, Nine Below Zero, Mighty Long Time, One Way Out, Don't Start Me Talking, Keep It To Yourself, Bring It On Home, and dozens more. But he had never recorded before like he did on this one night in Copenhagen, in a totally acoustic setting, sometimes with just his voice and harmonica, sometimes with Matt 'Guitar' Murphy backing him, sometimes joined by his old friend Memphis Slim on piano. These recordings (issued as "Keep It To Ourselves" on the Alligator label) capture a personal, improvisational side of Sonny Boy's music that has been rarely heard on record." ~Bruce Iglauer

we all miss sonny boy but you still live in our harts and the music we play
Ele,e sua mágica presença,sua atuação magistral,tocando e cantando com a alma harnônica!!!
this is the real blues doesn't get any better then this honestly in my opinion all you need is an acoustic guitar and harmonica and somebody singing the blues and it sounds so brilliant. i love electric guitar but sometimes in lacks the true emotion and takes the flavor away from what the blues is really about.. even if you can get some crazy ass bends that can speak and say whatever you want them to say i really love the old classics with clean guitar and no distortion it shows true emotion.
As a lot of us are "Born with the Blues", and you'll know whom I'm talkin' about; Sonny's music ( his art) was such a way of life, I get this feeling come straight over that he was badly hurt by a woman, note, I'm not putting women down 'cause I'm one myself. One beautiful, talented manwith the Blues and a mean harmonica. Thanks Sonny.. xoxoox
Thank you Sonny Boy for the many magnificent Blues gems that you left for us during your miraculous journey among us.We will remember you and your wonderful Blues offerings.
I dont know what to say except that I would have loved to have tipped a few Jack Daniels with this guy. Whatta a God of the Blues. RIP Sonny

Awesome. Ask Page and Plant where it all came from.
@nickbarcenas
It's true.
LZ did plagerize Bring it home from Sonny Boy ( one of the many that they tried to take credit for and lost in tehe court of law). This song is by the great TBone Walker
What kind of harmonica is it?
There are 2. This is the second that 'sort of' copied the first one. They're both great artists though.
The very beginning harmonica intro. Very similar to Bring it on Home (Led Zep version fr L Z II). Just saying.
Where can i purchase these recordings?
i like it, but i like the elmore james better, but thats just me
