Yes, Mr. White was ?Booker?, but I did not know that was his preference. I certainly meant no disrespect to his memory. (BTW, ?Change My Clothes? is a heavy favorite of mine as well).
However, I can't specifically remember seeing any records, etc that said ?Booker?. (Not to say they're not out there). I understand he recorded as ?Washington White?, and "Washington Barrelhouse White". Also, there?s his 1940 song titled ?Bukka?s Jitterbug Swing?. (I'm sure artisits often didn't pick their own titles).
I remember reading that Skip James was never called ?Skip?, but always ?Skippy? until his records came out as ?Skip James? (perhaps from an oversight?), so that?s how he?s remembered.
I wonder what Jefferson & McTell thought about the word ?Blind? in their billing...

(Not to change the subject here; It?s kind of interesting to see which blues artists people favor).
