Samuel "Magic Sam" Gene Maghett (February 14, 1937 – December 1, 1969) was an American Chicago blues musician. Maghett was born in Grenada, Mississippi, United States, and learned to play the blues from listening to records by Muddy Waters and Little Walter. After moving to Chicago at the age of nineteen, he was signed by Cobra Records and became well known as a bluesman after his first record, "All Your Love" in 1957. He was known for his distinctive tremolo-guitar playing.

"Magic Sam had a different guitar sound," said his record producer, Willie Dixon. "Most of the guys were playing the straight 12-bar blues thing, but the harmonies that he carried with the chords was a different thing altogether. This tune "All Your Love", he expressed with such an inspirational feeling with his high voice. You could always tell him, even from his introduction to the music."

Born in Helena Arkansas in the early 1920’s, Jimmy McCracklin moved to Richmond California and set up shop at The Savoy Club, becoming a well known west coast bluesman in the post WWII era. His first record “Miss Mattie Left Me,” appeared on L.A’s Globe in 1945. He’s remembered particularly for his recordings for Bob Geddins’ Swingtime and The Bihari Brothers’ Modern labels. His biggest hit was The Walk, recorded in 1957 for Chess. In the 60’s he recorded for Imperial, and in the 70’s he recorded for Stax. He wrote “Tramp,” a big hit for Lowell Fulson, and later on Bullseye imprint. Other artist’s who’ve recorded his songs include Elvin Bishop, Rufus Thomas, Los Lobos , B.B. King, Elvis Presley, and even hip hop acts have borrowed from McCracklin’s oeuvre including Salt ‘n’ Pepa, Ice Cube, among others.
