Biography

Homesick James' gravelly voice is almost as distinctive as the slide guitar playing that made him a blues revival favorite three decades ago. Cousin to Elmore James -- and his erstwhile rhythm guitarist -- James toured well into the late '90s, and kept up his notoriously randy and good-humored schtick while warbling classic, beautifully delivered blues.
