Mississippi Sheiks - South Side Blues tracks
« on: May 11, 2011, 10:42:08 AM »
Some time ago, I got three tracks off the album Chicago: The Living Legends - South Side Blues. This Riverside release is under Mama Yancey and Little Brother Montgomery's names, with three tunes by a band going by the name of the Mississippi Sheiks. Sounds like piano, guitar, bass, drums. Walter Vinson is singing. Since these were emusic tracks, I have no notes of course. Does anyone know the personnel on these three 1960s-era Sheiks tracks?

It says here that these were "Recorded in Chicago: September 6 and 8, 1961."
Any other info out there?

That was a mistake! I meant to send you a PM, but clicked the wrong icon.
