BLUESMAN JOHN HAMMOND BY BIRA DANTAS

He came to Brazil in a Musical Tour. I've made a caricature of him during the show. After this I asked him a signing in a CD and gave him another caricature. He said: - You are the man! Then I showed him my Bluesmen caricatures collection. The first was Robert Johnson. - He loves Robert! his wife said. He asked me: - Do you know their musics? - I can talk about your work to everyone I know in the Blues scene. JOHN P. HAMMOND http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_P._Hammond Was bron in 1942, New York.
