  • Alex Miller (possibly December 5, 1912 -- May 25, 1965), known professionally as Sonny Boy Williamson, was an American blues harmonica player, singer and songwriter, from Mississippi. He is acknowledged as one of the most charismatic and influential blues musicians, with considerable prowess on the harmonica and highly creative songwriting skills. He recorded successfully in the 1950s and 1960s, and had a direct influence on later blues and rock performers.

Ive been playing for over 35yrs and love the traditional styles more now than ever. Love what Howard Levy, Joe Filisco and Kim Wilson are doing with the harp

      You wouldn't, this was recorded during the American Folk Blues Festival and The British Tours (1963-1966) in the UK and Germany. They were very successful and on TV over here, which hadn't yet happened in the US. Sonny Boy Williamson loved Europe and stayed on for a year. Some concerts, like the one my father traveled from the Netherlands to see with a friend, were in Frankfurt. I was trying to see if I could find him in the audience, he has just passed on at 98. He bought their records back then and passed them and his great love of the blues and these legendary musicians to me.
