188 Jesse “Lone Cat” Fuller (1896-1976) “San Francisco Blues” 1955

He played a “ramshackle mix of pop, vaudeville, jazz, spirituals, fancy instrumentals, children’s songs, hillbilly, work songs and medicine and minstrel show material. A powerful, exceedingly expressive vocalist and extraordinary 12-string guitarist, he developed an incomparable one-man band approach around his fotdella and harmonica/kazoo gig” (Gary von Tersch, Sing Out, 2010).
