SHY GUY DOUGLAS "Stone Doin' Alright"

Great rockin' harmonica bluesman from Nashville.

Very little is known about blues harmonica player/singer Tom "Shy Guy" Douglas. He was discovered at a talent show in down town Nashville in the late 40s and first recorded in the 'jump' R&B style. But he is best remembered for his '50s and early '60s recordings which were much more in the 'swamp' style with similar sound and intensity to Jimmy Reed. This 21 track compilation includes all of his best recordings including such sought-after titles as "Let's Rock & Roll", "My Little Baby", "Monkey Doin' Woman" and "What's This I Hear".
