Hi Aziz,
I did start a similar thread to yours as I hadn't seen it then. Fortunately someone revived it. Thanks
Like you I'm curious about the 'Blind' name: was it used by the singer or by the record companies. Usually it seems to be 'Blind First name Surname' but then there's 'Blind Blake' whose first name is never used. I think he says it's Arthur on one of his recordings. I seem to remember when Sonny Terry first arrived in the UK he was never called Blind Sonny Terry. Then there is the now very unaccepatable 'Crippled Clarence'. If you browse the Document catalogue you'll find that John Bray has a very non pc nick name!
