by Ron WynnA fine St. Louis guitarist and vocalist, Charley Jordan teamed with many blues luminaries for some fine recordings in the 20s,30s and 40s. After traveling throughout the Southeast as a hobo in the 30s, Jordan settled in St. Louis. He played with Memphis Minnie, Roosevelt Sykes, Casey Bill Weldon, Peetie Wheatstraw and many others. Jordan overcame a permanent spine injury he suffered during a shooting incident in 1928. He recorded for Vocalion and Decca in the 30s, and also doubled as a talent scout for both labels. Jordan worked often with Big Joe Williams in the late 30s and the 40s.
