    Gris-Gris
    (1968) and his appearance at the
    Bath Festival of Blues and Progressive Music
    . He typically performed a lively, theatrical stage show inspired by
    medicine shows
    ,
    Mardi Gras
    costumes, and
    voodoo
    ceremonies. Rebennack recorded thirty studio albums and nine live albums, as well as contributing to thousands of other musicians' recordings. In 1973, he achieved a top 10 hit single with "

    one of the white bluesmen who came to prominence, along with
    Mike Bloomfield
    ,
    Paul Butterfield

    Elvin Bishop
    , as a pivotal figure in helping to revive the
    Chicago Blues
    movement of the 1960s. He has often been identified as a "white bluesman".

    Kevin Roosevelt Moore

    Keb' Mo'
    , is an American blues musician and five-time
    Grammy Award
    winner. He is a singer, guitarist, and songwriter, living in
    Nashville, Tennessee
    . He has been described as "a living link to the seminal
    Delta blues
    that travelled up the
    Mississippi River
    and across the expanse of America." His post-modern blues style is influenced by many eras and genres, including folk, rock, jazz, pop and country. The moniker "Keb Mo" was coined by his original drummer, Quentin Dennard, and picked up by his record label as a "street talk" abbreviation of his given name. "
