'I got my first guitar in 1953, or late 1952. My mother bought it for me from a Chicago mail order house for a very expensive price, at that time, of $11. I was always around the bands of Smiley Lewis, Guitar Slim and Fats Domino. I would say I liked their styles better than the Chicago sound. Then I came to Chicago in '55 and I see harmonica, two guitars and a drummer. They still sounded full. But I couldn't understand it. This wasn't what I expected to find, but I liked it once I did discover it.'\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhil Guy - Breaking Out On Top\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhil Guy - Talk To Me Baby\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhil Guy - Texas Flood\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhil Guy - Sadie\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhil Guy - Blues With A Feeling\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhil Guy - Let Me Love You Baby\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhil Guy - Red Dress (Hi Heel Sneakers)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhil Guy - Everything Gonna Be Alright\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhil Guy - Cold Cold Feeling\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJimmy Dawkins - You Gotta Love Somebody\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhil Guy - Bad Luck Boy (Born Under A Bad Sign)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJimmy Dawkins - Easy Baby\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhil Guy - Wine Head Woman\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJimmy Dawkins - That's Allright\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhil Guy - Skin And Bones\/Money\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJimmy Dawkins - I Feel So Bad\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhil Guy - Love Is Like Quicksand\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJimmy Dawkins - You Don't Love Me\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhil Guy - Garbage Man Blues\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJimmy Dawkins - Dust My Blues Jam\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhil Guy - Tina Nu\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhil Guy - I Once Was A Gambler\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhil Guy - Big Boss Man\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55127828398465,"sku":"1566071","price":15.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/51PYsZ8qqAL._SL1500.jpg?v=1766723636","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/1566071","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
