BUKKA WHITE
with HARMONICA BOY, BILL BARTH, TREVOR KOEHLER, ANCHOR, JIM CROSTHWAIT, JOE GRAY
Bukka White (true name: Booker T. Washington White) was born in Houston, Mississippi (not Houston, Texas)
in 1906 (not any date between 1902-1905 or 1907-1909, as is variously reported).
He got his initial start in music learning fiddle tunes from his father. Guitar instruction soon followed,
but White's grandmother objected to anyone playing "that Devil music" in the household;
nonetheless, his father eventually bought him a guitar. Somewhere along the line,
White came in contact with Delta blues legend Charley Patton, who no doubt was able
to give Bukka White instruction on how to improve his skills in both areas of endeavor.
In addition to music, White pursued careers in sport, playing
in Negro Leagues baseball and, for a time, taking up boxing
