Tribute Mondays: Lonesome Sundown

Cornelius Green III (December 12, 1928 – April 23, 1995)

Blues Singer/ Songwriter and Musician (Guitar, Harmonica), Lonesome Sundown, worked as a Porter, and a Truck Driver before entering into the music industry. He sold well as a Artist, but failed to chart. He is remembered for his authentic Swamp Blues and his work has also been covered by others. Thanks for your contribution Mr. Green, you are appreciated. Please take a listen here and have a good Monday: They call me sundown, My home is a prison, , Hoo doo woman blues and Gonna stick to you baby
