Could this be him?

Pinetop Perkins, born Joe Willie Perkins, 7th July 1913, Belzoni, Mississippi, USA. A barrelhouse blues pianist from before his teens, Perkins traveled through Mississippi and Arkansas, and north to St Louis and Chicago, playing piano, and sometimes guitar, behind Big Joe Williams, Robert Nighthawk, John Lee 'Sonny Boy' Williamson and others. He recorded for Sun Records in 1953, although only 'Pinetop's Boogie Woogie' was issued, many years later.

He also Accompanied Earl Hooker and Boys Gilmore on Sun, and Nighthawk on Aristocrat. From the early 60s, he settled in Chicago. In 1969, Perkins replaced Otis Spann in the Muddy Waters Band, with which he toured up to and after the leader's death, also working as a solo act.

The legendary piano player is now 84 years old and was voted Best Piano Player at the 1998 WC Handy Awards.
