The blues musician did a session for Peel's Top Gear programme in 1969, whilst he was touring in the UK and the European mainland as part of the 1969 American Folk Blues Festival. The singer's material was mainly played by Peel between 1969 and 1970, but he did revisit his material in 2004 when he played 'Runnin' Shoes' on his show.
