Blues Is In The House !

Nashville is world famous as the capital of Country music, not Blues rather associated with Memphis. Still the Grand Ole Opry city also has a blues and R&B scene, and Johnny Jones was an active member of it for nearly fifty years.

Born in 1936 in Edes, Tennessee, John D. Jones Jr. moved to Memphis at age 13, then to Chicago in the early 1950s where he got under the influence of Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf, and worked regularly with Junior Wells and Freddie King (1)
