    what a f king GIANT! I had the great fortune to have a close friendship with otis the last 3 yrs of his life. The man had a heart bigger than the state of Texas. Tragically, we had to pass a hat for money to bury him!! Lucille, if you are out ther reading this, write me baby. I LOVe you!!!

    I’m obviously in good company here. Otis was an amazing musician, he really added to the Muddy Waters blues band.

    Boogie -Woogie with the great Otis Spann!
    Spann's father was, according to some sources, a pianist called Friday Ford. His mother, Josephine Erby, was a guitarist who had worked with Memphis Minnie and Bessie Smith, and his stepfather, Frank Houston Spann, was a preacher and musician. One of five children, Spann began playing the piano at the age of seven, with some instruction from Friday Ford, Frank Spann, and Little Brother Montgomery.
    Spann became known for his distinctive piano style. He replaced Merriweather as Muddy Waters' piano player in late 1952 and participated in his first recording session with the band on September 24, 1953. He continued to record as a solo artist and session player with other musicians, including Bo Diddley and Howlin' Wolf, during his tenure with the group. He stayed with Muddy Waters until 1968. Go check out one of his MANY records!
    Aside from his own records, Otis played with:
