He relocated to Chicago in 1962, having learned the finer points of playing the blues-harp and guitar in Memphis, and worked with such blues legends as J.B. Hutto and Mike Bloomfield.In 1966 he signed a contract with Vanguard Records, and issued a string of critically acclaimed albums. He left Vanguard in 1971 and recorded for such labels as Arhoolie, Paramount and Capitol.
