Sonny Boy Williamson II - Don't Start Me To Talkin' download song

reminds me of Little Walter - Got To Find My Baby and Sweet Home Chicago

Numerous great versions of this...but nothing beats this one!

Thanks to the British blues craze I got to hear the genuine article.

Great period piece. Great Story song.

Sounds like that woman had more problems than just Sonny talkin' 'bout her antics & drama. Whaddya think?

Rice Miller ("Sonny Boy Williamson") was a blues genius. And his backing musicians at Chess/Checker were great - together producing blues classic after blues classic..

The King of the Harmonica....God please let me play one sonny rif….Heaven!!!!

don't start me to talking I will tell everything I know also some things I don't know.

After Trumpet Records folded, on August 12, 1955, Sonny Boy Williamson II had his first recording session for Checker Records. "Don't Start Me Talkin'" was recorded at these sessions. Backing Williamson ( vocals and harmonica ) were Otis Spann on piano , Muddy Waters and Jimmy Rogers on guitar , Willie Dixon on bass , and Fred Below on drums . [

One of the best blues singer and harp player of all time....

The Doobie Brothers' version on their album, "Tolouse Street," (listed as "Don't Start Me To Talkin'"), brought me to this original version.  My grandmother was a beautician and owned her own beauty shop, so, in a sense my family and I lived the lyrics to this song.  This guy was in his mid 50s when this, his first and biggest R&B hit, charted and he sounds like he has been there and done that dozens of times over.  He was such an inspiration in England that the Yardbirds (then with Eric Clapton) did an entire live album with him.  One of the all-time greats.

Don't start me to talkin, I'll tell everything I know. I'm gonna break up this signifyin, Somebody's got to go.

Love this version, was on the Chess Best of collection. Like the single note guitar vamp.
