The relatively obscure bluesman Dr Ross has been on my turntable recently. This one man band who lived in Flint Michigan was a great exponent of the rural boogie, welding harp and guitar together in a familiar but unique way, playing them upside down as he was left handed. He served in the Phillipines and elsewhere and recorded blues relating to his military experiences. This album is worth checking out, as is this discography
Another great one man band of the era is Joe Hill Louis another artist I love to bits...
