About Big Bill Broonzy
In terms of his musical skill, the sheer size of his repertoire, the length and variety of his career, and his influence on contemporaries and musicians who would follow, Big Bill Broonzy was among a select few of the most important figures in recorded blues history, and instrumental in the growth of the Chicago blues sound. His travels abroad ranked him as one of the leading blues ambassadors. ~ Steve James
