An electric blues guitarist, singer and songwriter, Jenkins worked at the Packard Motor Company and on the side, managed a garage, before landing a job at Chrysler, where he worked for 27 years. He wrote most of his great songs while working on the assembly line. He got his rhythms from the machines on the line, and he would state that it was like listening to a band all day. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThis collector's CD release contains those hard-to-find 7\" sides Bobo Jenkins made for different imprints like Chess, Fortune, and Boxer.
