Magic Sam. Westside Guitar Wizard.

Ron Thompson (born July 5, 1953) is an American electric blues and blues rock guitarist, singer and songwriter. Thompson has released nine albums since 1983 on labels including Blind Pig. He has worked with Little Joe Blue, John Lee Hooker, Lowell Fulson, Etta James and Big Mama Thornton.

English singer-songwriter. Samuel Thomas Fender. 1996-04-25) 25 April 1996 (age 23). North Shields, England, United Kingdom. Dean Thompson (lead guitar) Tom Ungerer (bass) Drew Michael (drums) Joe "superior" Atkinson (guitar and keys) Johnny "Bluehat" Davis (saxophone). Samuel Thomas Fender (born 25 April 1996), is an English singer-songwriter who was named one of the BBC's Sound of 2018 alongside other emerging artists including Sigrid, Lewis Capaldi, and Khalid. His single "Play God" was featured in the FIFA 19 video game Contents.

His guitar playing remains one of the most distinct, piercingly personal blues styles: bright and staccato, with no sustain or sting, a deep soul ringing through its fully trebled glory. He often threw in bursts of rhythm-twisting repeated notes and short, minimalist bends before sliding up the neck to the higher realms of the instrument. His album West Side Soul is a gritty, influential classic, excellent from start to finish, just like Sam's fiery licks and full-chested vocal wails.

Listen to the biggest hits from Magic Sam, including All Your Love, I Need You So Bad, Every Night and Every Day, and more. No dice, said the newly christened Magic Sam (apparently Mack Thompson's brainstorm). His Cobra debut single, "All Your Love," was an immediate local sensation; its unusual structure would be recycled time and again by Sam throughout his tragically truncated career. Both LPs showcased the entire breadth of Sam's Westside attack: the first ranged from the soul-laced "That's All I Need" and a searing "I Feel So Good" to the blistering instrumental "Lookin' Good" and definitive remakes of "Mama Talk to Your Daughter" and "Sweet Home Chicago," while Black Magic benefitted from Shaw's jabbing, raspy sax as Sam blasted through.
