Clarence Sims gtr- Born to Sing the Blues (CD)
In a 1999 Living Blues review Bill Dahl writes, "the result is a first-class showcase for the uncompromising guitarist... a load of steaming blues spotlighting Sims' intense, high-pitched vocals and slicing, stinging lead guitar (sporting tinges of Johnny 'Guitar' Watson, Guitar Slim, and the ever popular B.B. and Albert King)." Originally recorded in 1987 at the Eli Mile High club in Oakland, California, this CD is a reissue of the original LP "Born to Sing the Blues" - it stands as a West Coast blues classic.
