John was never known for hot guitar playing but he was one of the most intriguing songwriters in all of blues. He wrote a song about his lawyer, one about his mechanic, and one about the teenage girl next door who used to tease him by telling him about her erotic dreams. Amazing, wonderful stuff...one of the greatest poets in all of blues.

That take of "Hey Baby" by John Henry Barbee has eluded me for almost 15 years. There was another high quality recording of him (pretty sure from the 1964 tour) that has long been deleted. I believe he was solo sitting about where Hammie Nixon was in a similar setting. Maybe I'm wrong or just losing my mind, but that recording must still exist somewhere. He was definitely playing that 3 pickup Rocket and I know Lighntin' Hopkins was in the lineup.

John Henry Barbee

[@iicjguitar0416]

​@@970ronaldo yes. Barbee died in a Chicago jail on November 3, 1964 after running over a man with his newly-bought car.
He had returned back from Europe because he was diagnosed with a severe form of cancer.
