Lee Williams nickname 'Shot' came from his mother, who called him 'Big Shot' as young Lee liked to dress up in fancy clothes at any opportunity. 'Shot' was born and raised in Mississippi, and moved north (first to Detroit, then to Chicago) for a career as a blues musician.
This track, while not a blues number, showcases Lee's vocals in a raw, deep soul setting that works perfectly for the man's style.
from 1972...
