Eddie Boyd - The Blues Is Here To Stay

Eddie Boyd começou a tocar piano influenciado por Roosevelt Sykes e Leroy Carr. Gravou com a lenda da gaita Sonny Boy Williamson o clássico de 1945, Elevator Woman. É de sua autoria alguns dos mais lindos blues da história como Five Long Years (1952), 24 Hours (1953), Third Degree (com Willie Dixon), e tocou com grandes nomes como Buddy Guy, Fleetwood Mac e John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers. Morreu em 1994, poucos meses antes do lançamento do clássico álbum bluseiro From The Cradle, de Eric Clapton, no qual havia gravado dois de seus blues de forma emocionante.
