Best known as <a href="spotify:artist:4y6J8jwRAwO4dssiSmN91R">Muddy Waters</a>' final piano accompanist, the sadly underrecognized Lovie Lee was a longtime staple of the Chicago club circuit. Born Eddie Lee Watson in Chattanooga, TN on March 17, 1909, he worked during the day as a factory woodworker, honing his skills each night in the Chicago blues clubs from the '50s onward; the adoptive father of harpist <a href="spotify:artist:7wcrtrCODZkNbpq1ZYABxs">Carey Bell</a>, he acquired an impressive local reputation over time, but was little known outside of the Midwest in spite of his association with <a href="spotify:artist:22JuR9OeENcP54XN5TlNWS">Waters</a> during the legend's final years. In 1984 and 1989, Lee recorded much of the material which later comprised his 1992 release Good Candy, which was rounded out by latter-day efforts cut with <a href="spotify:artist:7wcrtrCODZkNbpq1ZYABxs">Bell</a>; his lone solo release, it too garnered little notice. Lee died May 23, 1997. ~ Jason Ankeny, Rovi
