Henry Gray is the latest artist in Jasmine's 'In Session' series, spotlighting their work as sideman as well as recordings under their own name. Gray's first session was in 1952 on CHESS with Jimmy Rogers and later that year with Morris Pejoe. In 1955 he recorded with Howlin' Wolf which produced the minor hit 'Who Will Be Next'. Jimmy Reed rarely used piano on his Vee Jay recordings but three from one session has Gray pounding away in the back ground. Henry 'pops' up in the middle of Billy Boy's 'Here's My Picture' to take an amazing solo from the same label. A switch to Parrot records with Dusty Brown then a session on Blue Lake under his own name before the classic G. 'Davy' Crockett track 'Look out Mable' revered by rock & rollers to this day...............
