Very interesting read about a legend whose name I had heard, who I knew was an inspiration for many blues, folk and rock singers, yet I really knew nothing about. From the start of his musical career in the red light district of Shreveport, LA to his stints in prison to his rise to fame in New York City, the book is well-researched, and gives you some insight into what it was like to be a musician in the early days.
