Samuel James

From Wikipedia:
"Take the songwriting of Bill Withers and Tom Waits. Now combine that with the soul power and energy of James Brown. And the charisma of P.T. Barnum. Enter in the guitar playing of Leo Kotke and you're starting to get an idea of what Samuel James is all about. The last of the great, ...black, American t...roubadours, Samuel James is a performer of stunning singularity. He has irreversibly changed what it means to be a solo act.
