Phil Guy

Born in Louisiana, he too was a guitarist who eventually settled in Chicago and became synonymous with the sound that bears its name. While in Chicago he played with such greats as Junior Wells before establishing his own recording career in the ’80s and ’90s. Guy died of pancreatic cancer at the age of 68.
