Lafayette Thomas (1928-1977) I just recently learned about this guy - funny how every time I think I've heard it all - there's more great guitarists out there to discover! From what I've learned so far, he played with Jimmy McCracklin's band in the late 40s and early 50s before giving it a go as a solo artist. His guitar can be heard on a variety of recordings from the same era. Which ones you ask? I'm working on this one still! Be patient grasshopper.
