Magic Sam was a Chicago bluesman born on February 14, 1937 in Grenada, Mississippi. He gained recognition for his distinctive tremolo guitar playing and released his first record, "All Your Love," on the Cobra label in 1957. His music captivated audiences with its soulful sound and heartfelt lyrics.
Throughout his career, Magic Sam drew inspiration from various artists such as Memphis Slim, Otis Rush, Jimmy Rogers, and Sonny Boy Williamson II. His unique style blended elements of traditional blues with modern influences to create a sound that was truly his own.
Tragically, Magic Sam's life was cut short when he passed away on December 1, 1969 in Chicago. However, his legacy lives on through his timeless music and the influence he had on future generations of musicians.

One of the greatest blues albums of all time, West Side Soul was chosen by Living Blues magazine as one of it's top ten Desert Island Blues Discs. Featuring Mighty Joe Young, guitar; Stockholm Slim, piano; Earnest Johnson or Mac Thompson, bass; Odie Payne Jr. or Odie Payne III, drums. 12 tracks including "That's All I Need", "I Need You So Bad", "Feelin' Good", "All Your Love", "Sweet Home Chicago" and more.
