"In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks." -- John Muir

Lil' Ed and The Blues Imperials
Lil' Ed Williams was born April 18, 1955 in Chicago. Williams recieved childhood encouragement from his uncle, the legendary blues, slide guitarist J.B. Hutto. Lil' Ed's slide-driven sound evokes the houserocking blues of Hound Dog Taylor and Elmore James defined in the '50s and '60s. His untamed stage presence, and high toe-walks through the crowd are unremittingly entertaining. Photos were taken at Rosa's in Chicago, on January 7, 2011, November 28, 2009, December 19, 2008, and January 27, 2008.
