Roy has the goods: the original, the bare-knuckle, the low-down . . . blues. Who can say they were friends with the Rev. Gary Davis and Pink Anderson? And toured with Arthur Big Boy Crudup, Hot Tuna & Bonnie Raitt and JJ Cale ...? Roy can. He has the stories, the licks, and the mystery of timeless music in his fingers.
