Elga Edmonds a.k.a Elgin Evins Muddy's first drummer





Some of you may have already seen these photos on "The Real Blues Forum" but I thought it would be appreciated if I shared them here also. My guess is that the man kneeling is Elga Edmonds as is the man in the bottom right corner of the musicians photo. 
I'm very pleased with them and they make a great addition to my autograph collection. Hope you enjoy them also.

Back in the 1970s there was a hilarious article in Blues Unlimited about this drummer and the numerous variations of his name.

Thanks for sharing these images. I enjoyed looking at them. I guess that the drummer's own signature makes certain that his name really was "Elga." I had always wondered about that.
