Thanks for your continued support.
Fats was an amazing blues guitarist but cut his life and career short, leaving us with far too little music. This is still the lone video of Hollywood Fats on youtube that doesn't have embedding disabled...
There are also a few records floating around, including a compilation put out on Delta Groove (check out the audio clips).
You can see lots more pictures and learn more about Hollywood Fats and the 47 other musicians in my tribute book, Everybody I Shot Is Dead.
Hollywood Fats passed away 23 years ago today. He suffered a heart attack caused by heroin. Don't do drugs, kids. Especially if you have the kind of ability on the guitar like Fats did. We definitely didn't get enough of him.
Today's deal is a 16x20 numbered and signed Limited Edition print of the man himself...
