Blues singer, guitarist, harmonica, and "stovepipe" player who recorded for Gennett and Gennett in 1924 and for Gennett in 1927.
He chose the pseudonym when he discovered that Johnny Watson had used a pseudonym he wanted to use (i.e., Daddy Stovepipe).
"Born perhaps in the 1880s, Sam Jones spent the known part of his life in Cincinnati, where he was last seen in the 1960s" (The Penguin guide to blues recordings (2006), p. 611).
