Edwards, David "honeyboy"

Roamin' & Ramblin'

New 2007 sessions with harmonica greats Bobby Rush, Billy Branch and Johnny "Yard Dog" Jones, previously unreleased studio recordings of Honeyboy and Big Walter Horton, and circa 1976 concert tracks both solo and with Sugar Blue. Michael Frank, Paul Kaye, Rick Sherry and Kenny Smith play on the album on various tracks. Honeyboy and Bobby Rush also tell some short blues tales. This is a concept album to evoke the duets Honeyboy played from the 1930s through 1960s with Sonny Boy Williamson, Big Walter Horton, Little Walter Jacobs, Carey Bell and other great harp players. This was Honeyboys last studio recording
