Luther Allison
August 17, 1939 – August 12, 1997
"All the Chicago Blues Festival needed was a hero. Enter Luther Allison, the expatriate bluesman flew in Saturday afternoon from his adopted home base of Paris, and hours later made the 12th Annual Blues Festival his personal showcase. From the time Allison tore into Soul Fixin' Man, he captivated the crowd. Responding to pleas of 'Don't hurt me, Luther' and 'Burn it down,' he played some of the hottest riffs that ever rained down from the main stage. Every guitar solo was an eloquent statement delivered with searing, lightning-quick precision."
