About Juke Boy Bonner

Juke Boy Bonner (Weldon H. Philip Bonner, March 22, 1932 – June 29, 1978) was an American, "one-man band", blues singer, harmonica player, and guitarist. He was influenced by Lightnin' Hopkins, Jimmy Reed and Slim Harpo. He described the bleak prospects of black urban existence in songs like "Life is a Nightmare", "Struggle Here in Houston" and "Going Back to the Country", accompanying himself on guitar, harmonica and drums in the self-sufficient one-man band mode of Joe Hill Louis and Dr. Ross.
