Joe Carter's 2016 Concert History

The first is Joe Carter, a Chicago blues guitarist, born October 20, 1927 in Helena, Arkansas, and died July 15, 2012 of heart failure. He moved to Chicago in the 1950s and became a fixture in South Side clubs, playing with musicians such as Lacy Gibson, Sunnyland Slim, and Lee Jackson. His style was straightforward, with a raw tone and phrasing inspired by T‑Bone Walker, keeping traditional electric blues alive in small venues and independent recordings.
