Eddie Kirkland
Kirkland, known as the "Gypsy of the Blues" for his rigorous touring schedules, played and toured with John Lee Hooker from 1949 to 1962. After his period of working in tandem with Hooker he pursued a successful solo career, recording for RPM Records, Fortune Records, Volt Records, and King Records, sometimes under the stage name Eddie Kirk. Kirkland continued to tour, write and record albums until his death in February 2011. Mr Bo
Detroit bluesman Louis Collins, known professionally as Mr. Bo. Born in
Indianola, Mississippi in 1932, Collins, like his brother, the bandleader Mac
Collins became a stalwart of the Detroit blues scene during the barren days of
the 1960s and dissapointingly he made few appearances on record, save for a
handful of rare 45s. Collins left Mississippi in 1946, first moving to Chicago,
then to Baldwin, Michigan in 1951, before settling in Detroit. Once in Detroit
he played gigs with John Lee Hooker, Eddie Burns, Little Sonny Willis and Boogie
Woogie Red, however he did not make it onto wax until 1959 when he signed with
Johnnie Mae Mathews Northern label cutting Im leaving This Town/Times Hard, supported by his brother Mac on bass.
Four sides that were originally unissued and waxed for Lupine at the turn of the
decade eventually turned up on the vinyl album Three Shades of Blues , which also featured material by Eddie Kirkland and Bennie McCain and The
Ohio Untouchables. It is also rumoured that Collins may have cut with Little Joe
Blue, and Bobo Jenkins around this time. He also waxed one 45 for Reel Records,
Heartache And Trouble/Calipso Blues
By the mid Sixties he had signed to Big D Records, a record label owned by local
businessman Diamond Jim Riley who appeared to have a stranglehold on Mr. Bo's
career. He issued three 45s by Mr. Bo and further sides followed on the Diamond
Jim label. This association ended in 1971 when Riley was killed in a Detroit
bar. Collins issued a 45 in 1972 on his own Gold Top label which was sold at his
gigs.
Mr. Bo appeared, with Mac Collins
band, as part of a Detroit blues package show at the 1973 Ann Arbor Blues And
Jazz Festival. There was talk of Blues Factory Records cutting an
album with Mr. Bo, but nothing more was heard. He made a welcome visit to Europe
in 1993 when he played Utrecht. Sadly under recorded, Mr. Bo
was one of the blues artists who kept the blues scene alive in the Motor City
for over three decades. Collins died on September 19th, 1995, in Detroit
Bennie McCain and The Ohio Untouchables
Formed in 1959, the Ohio Untouchables were a Detroit-based backing band for The Falcons (Wilson Pickett), and Benny McCain. They recorded "Love Is Amazing" in 1963.
In 1964, they moved to New York as the house band for Compass Records, Inc..
and in 1968, they have changed their name as the Ohio Players
(Robert Ward (vocals and guitar), Marshall Jones (bass), Ralph Middlebrook (alto saxophone), Clarence G. Satchell (tenor saxophone and flute) and Cornelius Johnson (drums))
