Eddie Taylor
After a childhood spent in Mississippi learning the blues from Charlie Patton,
Son House and Tommy McClennan, Eddie Taylor moved to Chicago with his friend
Jimmy Reed. Taylor is best known as the unfailing accompanist to Reed and John
Lee Hooker on countless sessions for the VeeJay label. The all-too-rare records
he recorded under his own name are consistently inspired and brilliant ("Big
Town Playboy", "Bad Boy").
