Sly Williams Boot Hill
Nobody knows who Sly Williams was. The authors of "Blues Records 1943-1970" Mike Leadbitter, Leslie Fancourt & Paul Pelletier stated that the artist was aurally similar to Clarence Samuels.
However, Clarence Samuels was a blues/jazz/ R&B sax player, popular in the 1940's and 50's. He was later believed to have disappeared from public view in New Orleans, after getting beaten up one night and having his saxophone smashed in either New Orleans or Baton Rouge, La. (sources vary upon the story).
