Morris Holt, known as Magic Slim, was an American blues singer and guitarist. Born at Torrance, near Grenada, Mississippi, the son of sharecroppers, he followed blues greats such as Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf to Chicago, developing his own place in the Chicago blues scene.
Slim’s first instrument was the church piano. He also fashioned a homemade diddley bow, with a single piece of wire, strung between two bottles. He was fast becoming an accomplished pianist, when a cotton gin accident at age 14, took the pinkie finger from his right hand. Influenced by artists such as Rufus Thomas, and Willie Mabon, he began taking guitar lessons from his uncle, bluesman, Walter Miller.
Magic Slim released no fewer than 36 albums in his lifetime, on labels such as Rooster Blues, Black and Blue, Alligator, Wolf, and Blind Pig Records. He had developed a trademark sound, accomplished by taking any song, and transforming it into a heaving blues shuffle. His penetrating guitar licks punctuated the music. Slim was also a walking, guitar playing, encyclopedia of music, with an ability to play nearly any song upon request. His musical repertoire counted in the hundreds. Holt’s live performances were rarely duplicated, and never monotonous.
