About Peg Leg Howell
Joshua Barnes Howell, known as Peg Leg Howell (March 5, 1888 - August 11, 1966) was an African American blues singer and guitarist, who connected early country blues and the later 12-bar style. He had the strong delivery and ear-catching repertoire of the professional street-singer. He was born on a farm in Eatonton, Georgia, United States, and taught himself guitar at the age of 21. Over time he became skilled in pre-Piedmont finger picking and slide guitar techniques.
