re: Sweet Soul Music

In 1957 G.L. Crockett released a rare example of black rockabilly, "Look Out Mabel".

In 1965 Crockett had a minor R&B hit w/ "It's A Man Down There" , an Elmore James/Sonny Boy Williamson song later covered by The Allmans.

Presumably it was that minor success that got him on this tour.

Crockett died of alcoholism in 1967.
