Linkchain,Hip Change My Blues CD

Cancer struck guitarist Hip Linkchain down before he could shed his status as a Chicago blues journeyman. With a fine album on the Dutch Black Magic logo ("Airbusters") to his credit shortly before he died, Linkchain might have managed to move up a rung or two in the city's blues pecking order had he lived longer. Born Willie Richard in Mississippi, his odd stage name stemmed from being dubbed "Hipstick" as a lad. (White residents of the area gave his seven-foot-tall dad the name Linkchain because he wore logging chains around his neck). This is Hip's 1983 album, done in his trademark fun, rollicking & earthy blues style.
