Liner Note Author: Chris Smith . Recording information: Chicago, IL (11/08/1937-05/22/1940); New York, NY (11/08/1937-05/22/1940). Lonnie Johnson was off records for five years during 1932-1937, working in Cleveland with Putney Dandridge, appearing on the radio, and working outside of music. In 1937, he moved to Chicago, where he returned to full-time music and began recording regularly for the Decca label. Three Document CDs cover his work of 1937-1947. This CD features Johnson as a solo blues performer (showcasing his guitar on instrumental versions of "Swing Out Rhythm" and "Got the Blues for the West End") and singing such numbers as "Flood Water Blues," "Devil's Got the Blues," and "Blue Ghost Blues." Some numbers have Johnson joined by either Roosevelt Sykes or Joshua Altheimer on piano along with a few unknown musicians. Rarely reissued, these performances are consistently excellent. ~ Scott Yanow Producer: Johnny Parth; Johnny Parth (Compilation) Musical Guests Roosevelt Sykes   Compilation Appearances Vol. 2-(1927-29) 1962-65 American Folk Blues Fe King R & B Box Set Smithsonian Folkways-American Vol. 2-Rose Grew Around The Br Turn Back The Clock Broke Black & Blue Vol. 7-(1927-55) Vol. 6-(1930-32) 1926-44 Every Day I Have The Blues Dirty Blues Bill Wyman's Blues Odyssey American Roots Music Very Best Of Kingfederal Deluxe Vol.1 Dirty Blues When The Sun Goes Down Secret History (Limited Edition) Legendary Jazz Guitarists: 1927-1941 Greatest Blues Century Of The Blues Blues 1925-1952 Chicago Urban Blues 1923-1945 B.o.
