    BILLY BOY ARNOLD, Chicago Blues harmonica / harp legend! One of the photos was taken under a bright ceiling light.
    Mint minus condition autographed 8x10 glossy photo, Alligator Records Official promotional picture. He autographed it for my business partner. It's a black and white photo and is signed with a BLACK MARKER, NOT GOLD. For being many years old it is in excellent condition, well taken care of.
    “Billy Boy Arnold’s great Vee Jay sides were a big influence on me when I was first starting out. The first two singles I ever played on were covers of Billy Boy Arnold tunes that I recorded with the Yardbirds. I’m very happy to see Billy Boy Arnold’s amazing personal story finally told in print.”—
    Eric Clapton
    Arnold—by dint of his unusually long career, his exceptionally detailed memory, and his many friendships with key figures on the scene—is the only one who can tell us this particular story. His shrewd, candid appraisals of his peers, leavened with quirky detail, add significantly to our understanding of postwar Chicago blues.”
    —Adam Gussow, musician and author
