141 Ivory Joe Hunter (1914-1974) “I Almost Lost My Mind” 1950

“the Texas-born Hunter was sneaking elements of country music into his jazzy ballads and jump blues as far back as the 1940s. By doing so he was helping to lay the groundwork for the cross-cultural musical revolution that would one day be named rock 'n' roll” (Contemporary Musicians).
