• 78 rpm record 

Recorded in 1942, this is the record on which T-Bone finds its own style. First, he makes maximum use of the possibilities of the electrically amplified guitar. His style, partly influenced by jazz, will have a major influence on the later B.B. King and the young Chicago guitarists in the 1950s like buddy Guy, Magic Sam and Otis Rush, In rock and roll, Chuck Berry has also "borrowed" a fan many a "lick" from him.
