Pinetop Perkins

Joe Willie Perkins was raised on a plantation in Honey Island, Mississippi. He only went to school as far as the third grade, so he didn’t write. He began his career as a guitarist but then injured the tendons in his left arm in a knife fight with a chorus girl in Helena, Arkansas in the 1940s. Unable to play the guitar, he switched to the piano.

In the 1950s, Perkins joined Earl Hooker and began touring. He recorded "Pinetop's Boogie Woogie" at Sam Phillips's Sun Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. The tune was written by Pinetop Smith, who created the original recording in 1928. Perkins learned to play-off Smith's records and said people used to call him Pinetop' because he played that song.

After his death in 2011 and in the late musician's honor, the Pinetop Perkins Foundation holds annual workshops for young musicians interested in Blues and Jazz music in Clarksdale, Mississippi. The foundation also provides financial relief to aging musicians through a program called the Pinetop Assistance League; with a goal of ensuring that elderly musicians who can no longer earn an income can pay their housing and medical costs in order to have comfort and dignity in their later years.

Willie “Pinetop” Perkins (July 7, 1913 - March 21, 2011) Delta Blues and boogie-woogie piano player was born near Belzoni, Mississippi. He played with some of the best-known blues and rock and roll artists in history and influenced many more including Elton John, Billy Joel, and Greg Allman.

He began at age ten playing guitar and piano but dropped guitar after sustaining an injury to his left arm. He moved to Helena, Arkansas to work with bluesman Robert Nighthawk, appearing on the recordings Nighthawk made for Chess Records. He recorded with Earl Hooker for Sun Records. He recorded “Pinetop’s Boogie Woogie” for Sun Records. Known as “Pinetop” since the 1940s, it was this record that stamped him with his lifelong nickname.

He replaced Otis Spann in Muddy Water’s band, a role that he maintained for twelve years. He joined other members of the Water’s band, striking out on their own as The Legendary Blues Band. This group toured and recorded from the late 1970s through the early 1990s releasing two records that received several Grammy nominations.

In 1988, he released his first solo effort, “After Hours,” on Blind Pig Records. He released the first of 15 solo records over 15 years. “Born in the Delta,” a multimedia-enhanced CD release, and “Legends,” with Hubert Sumlin. Both recordings received Grammy nominations in 1997 and 2000. He received a Grammy nomination for “Ladies Man” on MC Records and the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award.

He received the Blues Music Award for best piano every year (1993-2004) when he voluntarily retired from nomination. The award was thereafter renamed the “Pinetop” Perkins Piano Player of the Year award.

In 2008, “Pinetop and Friends” was released featuring such legendary artists as Eric Clapton, B.B. King, and Jimmie Vaughn. He released “Joined at the Hip,” a collaborative project with Willie “Big Eyes” Smith, which received a Grammy for Best Traditional Blues CD.

He was still playing regularly at the age of 97 and was often seen jamming in clubs around his home in Austin. #africanhistory365 #africanexcellence
