ARBEE STIDHAM: Tonight's show features his blues recordings from 1947-73 on a myriad of labels & backed by Tampa Red, Lucky Millinder's Orchestra, Willie Dixon, Ear Hooker and other stellar blues, jazz and R&B musicians.

A sadly overlooked bluesman who made some wonderful blues recordings starting in the Forties and continuing into the Seventies.
