GUEST,Jerome Clark Alan Lomax- Forest City Joe. (9) RE: Alan Lomax- Forest City Joe. 06 Aug 14

I'm glad the spelling was corrected. It wasn't "Forest," as in a lot of trees, but "Forrest," as in Confederate Gen. and KKK founder Nathan Bedford Forrest, after whom the town in St. Francis County, Arkansas, was named.

Forrest City Joe's "Memories of Sonny Boy" -- Williamson I, that is, John Lee Williamson -- appears on the first volume (#11) of the 4-disc 1992 box set Chess Blues. Irritatingly, there he's "Forest [sic] City Joe."
