John Lee Hooker
(August 22, 1912 or 1917 – June 21, 2001)
was an American
blues singer,
songwriter,
and guitarist.
The son of a sharecropper,
he rose to prominence
performing an electric
guitar-style adaptation of
Delta blues that he
developed in Detroit.
Hooker often incorporated
other elements,
including talking blues
and early North
Mississippi hill
country blues.
He developed his own
driving-rhythm boogie style,
distinct from the
1930s–1940s
piano-derived
boogie-woogie.
Hooker was ranked 35
in Rolling Stone's
2015 list of
100 greatest guitarists,
and has been cited as
one of the greatest
male blues vocalists
of all time
.Some of his best
known songs include
"Boogie Chillen'"
(1948),
"Crawling King Snake"
(1949),
"Dimples"
(1956),
"Boom Boom"
(1962),
and
"One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer"
(1966).
Several of his later albums,
including
The Healer
(1989),
Mr. Lucky
(1991),
Chill Out
(1995),
and
Don't Look Back
(1997),
were album chart successes
in the U.S.
and UK.
The Healer
(for the song
"I'm in the Mood")
and
Chill Out
(for the album)
both earned him
Grammy wins,
as well as
Don't Look Back,
which went on to earn him
a double-Grammy win
for Best Traditional
Blues Recording
and
Best Pop Collaboration
with Vocals
(with Van Morrison)
Jimmy Lee Ruffin
(May 7, 1936 – November 17, 2014)
was an

He had several hit records
between the
1960s and 1980s,
the most successful
being the Top 10 hits
"What Becomes of the Brokenhearted"

AND I LOOK ,
IN YOUR EYES
AND I COULD'NT BARE THE PAIN
I FELT INSIDE, OF MY HEART
TO THINK I'M GONNA
BE LONLEY AGAIN,
AND IF EVER GO
THEN I KNOW AT A GLANCE
I DON'T STAND A CHANCE
I SAW HER
WALKIN' ON DOWN THE LINE
YOU KNOW I SAW HER
FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME
A PRETTY GIRL
STANDIN' ALL ALONE
HEY, PRETTY BABY
CAN I TAKE YOU HOME
I KNOW THAT IT'S NOT EASY,
AND SOMETIMES
YOU GET CONFUSED
IT'S HARD TO TELL
IF YOU ARE BEING
LOVED, LOVED, LOVED,....
OR BEING USED

Edward Ray Cochran
(October 3, 1938 – April 17, 1960)
was an American
rock and roll musician.
His songs,
such as
"Twenty Flight Rock",
"Summertime Blues",
"C'mon Everybody"
and
"Somethin' Else",
captured teenage frustration
and desire
in the
mid-1950s
and early 1960s.
Cochran experimented
with multitrack recording,
distortion techniques,
and overdubbing,
even on his earliest singles.
Cochran played the guitar,
piano,
bass, and drums.
His image as a
sharply dressed
and attractive young
man with a
rebellious attitude
epitomized the stance
of the 1950s rocker,
and in death,
Cochran achieved
iconic status.
Cochran was involved
with music from
an early age,
playing in the school band
and teaching himself
to play blues guitar.
In 1955,
Cochran formed a duo
with the guitarist
Hank Cochran
(no relation)
and became known as
the Cochran Brothers.
When they split
the following year,
Eddie began a
song-writing career
with
Jerry Capehart.
His first success
came when he
performed the song
"Twenty Flight Rock"
in the film
The Girl Can't Help It,
starring
Jayne Mansfield.
Soon afterward,
he signed a
recording contract with
Liberty Records
and his first record
for the label,
"Sittin' in the Balcony",
rose to number 18
on the
Billboard charts.

Philippé Wynne
(April 3, 1941 – July 14, 1984)
was an
American singer,

a role he shared
with fellow
group members
Bobby Smith
and
Henry Fambrough
Wynne scored notable hits
such as
"How Could I Let You Get Away",
"The Rubberband Man",
and
"One of a Kind (Love Affair)".
After leaving
The Spinners,
Wynne never regained
the same success,
although he was featured
in hits by
other artists such as
"(Not Just) Knee Deep"
by Funkadelic.
Wynne died of a
heart attack
while performing at
a nightclub.
