He was one of the earliest of the blues musicians active in the 1920s to be brought out of retirement and given new opportunities to record during the folk blues revival of the 1960s. Booker T. Washington "Bukka" White (born on November 12, between 1900 and 1909; died February 26, 1977) was an American Delta blues guitarist and singer."
