Sonny Boy Williamson II's Grave

Acclaimed harmonica player and host of the King Biscuit Time radio hour, Williamson – aka Aleck Miller – is buried amid a broken-down jumble of gravestones. His headstone is set back in the trees. Rusted harmonicas, candles and half-empty whiskey bottles have been left here out of respect.
