Watermelon Slim first appeared on the music scene in the early 1970s as the only Vietnam veteran to record a full length LP during the war. In subsequent years, Slim played with a variety of famous blues stars, but only recent has he become a fulltime bluesman. Watermelon Slim is still THE HOTTEST name in Blues right now with a total of 16 Blues Music Award Nominations in 2007, 2008 \u0026amp; 2009 including Entertainer of the Year, Band of the Year, Album of the Year, Song of the Year, Traditional Blues Male Artist of the Year, and Traditional Blues Album of the Year. Ringers features the best musicians in Nashville, and was recorded at the same studio as \"O Brother, Where Art Thou?\". Two songs were co-written with Gary Nicholson, who writes a lot of songs for Delbert McClinton (who came in to watch Slim record in Nashville).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32830105387105,"sku":"0809509005925","price":12.22,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_406171_1848750_jpg.jpg?v=1771510484","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/0809509005925-ringers","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
