A tribute to the Blues. Born on the Delta plantations over 100 years ago, Coley Williams grows up with voodoo spirits singing all night long. He travels the railroads with his guitar on his back; here's when Robert Johnson's pact with the Devil catches up with him in a jar of whiskey poison.
Born on the Delta plantations over 100 years ago, Coley Williams grows up with voodoo spirits singing all night long. He travels the railroads with his guitar on his back; here's when Robert Johnson's pact with the Devil catches up with him in a jar of whiskey poison. He sees Blind Lemon Jefferson playing his own peculiar game of blind man's buff in a Texas cathouse, he drinks with Howling Wolf and Muddy Waters in Chicago, and Elvis in Memphis. He even makes it to London, where he hangs out with "a couple of skinny litle English boys" called Mick and Keith. This novel is a heartfelt tribute to the people and places of the Blues.
