| Comments: | I first heard of Big Bill over 20 years ago and wasn't able to hear his voice until just about a year ago on a local college station. Why this man isn't better known is a mystery to me-- thanks for the site and keeping his story alive... |

| Comments: | Hi, great to find your tribute site, I was actually searching for a poster or print of the great man, maybe you know of a supplier somewhere? I've been learning his tunes for the last 25 yrs or so, he's been a great musical companion! take a look on you-tube if you have 1min53 to spare (eddiefingers67, St Louis Blues)
