Willie Buck & Bob Corritore with Jimi Primetime Smith: CD Release Party 'Oh Yeah!'

with Willie Buck

Bob Corritore, born in Chicago in 1956, is a renowned blues harmonica player, producer, and promoter. Inspired by Muddy Waters at age 12, he mastered the harmonica under the guidance of Chicago blues legends. Now based in Phoenix, Corritore has released over 100 recordings, earned multiple music awards, and runs the Rhythm Room music venue. He continues to champion traditional blues through performances, productions, and his long-running radio show.

Willie Buck

Willie Buck’s career as a blues singer began slowly after he arrived in the “Windy City,” Chicago, in the 1950s. He quickly got into the circles by exploring, through a relative, Muddy Waters at his standard gig venue, the renowned Sylvio's Club in West Side. Muddy Waters is a name to which he has often been stylistically compared, but Willie has created his own career and song respecting traditions.
