kant sheck dees bluze

“Jimmy Dawkins is a masterful musician. He’s a brilliant song writer, an effective singer, and one of the very best West Side Chicago guitarists, with a staccato style of playing all his own. kant shek dees bluze is an essential album for lovers of blues guitar and anyone who looks to blues for no-holds-barred confrontation with the human condition.”
