Born in Memphis in 1934, Junior Wells was one of the primary blues
harmonica players in Chicago after World War II. Influenced by
Sonny Boy Williamson I and,
especially, Walter Jacobs (aka
"Little Walter"), Wells helped to define the sound of the harmonica in
the 1950s, first with the Aces, a group fronted by him, and later with
Buddy Guy and
Muddy Waters.
