@@peteschiernbeck2665 NO, NO, NO......Buddy Guy is alive and well as of this post 12/26/2024. Since you must not recognize him (and it says his name in the credits) he is the guitar player with the bit coat standing behind Junior Wells, with the red Gibson 335 guitar and the white & black Hound's Tooth coat.

Junior Wells was really popular when I was a teen and in my early twenties. He left an amazing legacy which I agree with Universal Citizen, is not appreciated today. I saw a live performance when I was 19. Truly mesmerising

During the week Buddy had his own club and Junior played Theresa's club, both on the south side. The house band was Sammy Lawhorn, who played with Muddy for many years, Phil Guy, here on wah-wah, and later, John Primer, and his band. Cotton and others would play. Cover was $1. Lefty Dizz, Dave Myers, and others would play at Buddy's. I miss those club. Only Buddy and John are still with us. Go see them if you can

Junior was an awesome performer. I saw him first in New Haven in 1968 or '69, and many times thereafter, including one of his final performances in a club in NYC. He's much missed.

Haha....Junior Wells in one of the harp players who was in Chicago when Charlie Musselwhite arrived and I believe he help Charlie learn harp. Junior Wells played harp with Muddy Waters after Little Walter left (as well as James Cotton) and had his first solo album around 1951-1953 called "Blues Hit Big Town", he was I believe 19 years old. .....some of the dates are approx. from my memory, don't feel like looking them all up but his album is great.
