Finally and aged 70, blues singer and guitar player Smilin’ Bobby, has seen his dream come true, as he has published his first cd recorded under his own name Bobby G Smith was born in July 1939 in Helena, Arkansas, When he was fifteen years old he moved to Chicago West Side, where he began his adventure as blues musician playing around every Chicago blues club Smilin’ Bobby has shared stage with many great musicians, such as Roy Buchanan, Magic Sam, Little Walter, Hound Dog Taylor, Little Wolf, Eddie Clearwater, Junior Wells, Vance Kelly, Buster Benton, Koko Taylor, Willie Dixon or Willie Kent among an endless list So the cd will give you the opportunity to discover an extremely traditional singer and guitar player, gifted with a powerful intense style in the path of Jimmy Dawkins, Eddie Taylor or Magic Sam, that will give you an idea of what you will find on it There is a superb debut album of a seventy years young man, who plays blues like a twenty years old musician
