Music of the Day! - After all is said and done, it’s all juss Chicken Stuff!

 Hop Wilson & his Chickens - Chicken Stuff (1958)


Steel Guitar Flash!...Plus


"Raw, powerful, in your face. The blues of Hop Wilson are some of the toughest and most direct to come out of that toughest and most direct of cities - Houston, Texas. Born in the eastern part of the state, Hop Wilson absorbed not only the black Texas blues as sung and played by the likes of Blind Lemon Jefferson but also the heavily amplified, often wildly distorted, steel guitar sounds of the region's white Western Swing bands. "
