Recently I re-gave the info which was written as such in several blues magazines that Amos Milburn Jr was in fact Amos Milburn himself. This LP that I discover for the first time thank to Xyros put the truth where it stands: Mr Amos Milbunr Jr wasn't Milburn after all but James Thomas Russ. A mystery at last solved for good. And all my apologizes for being wrong. By the way the music doesn't sound bad either.

Hi Xyros,

https://www.45cat.com/record/hss1090

"Amos Milburn Jr. is neither Amos Milburn nor the son of Amos Milburn. Born James Thomas Russ Jr., he was the son of a single mother who was such a huge Amos Milburn fan that she claimed that Milburn was his father – although they had never as much as met, and Milburn would have been just 13 years old when Jr. was born.

(When Jr. started his recording career in 1959, Milburn was still just 32, so any hypothetical son would have been in his early teens at most, even allowing for Milburn to have been a teenage father.)

The full story is in the sleeve notes to the LP You Used Me And Other Texas Rhythm & Blues Songs"

That'a all Folks !
