Kurz-Bio:
Der Bluessänger, Gitarrist und Songwriter Tampa Red wurde am 8. Jänner 1904 in Smithville, Georgia, als Hudson Woodbridge geboren und verstarb am 19. März 1981 in Chicago, Illinois. Tampa Red wurde schon sehr früh zur Vollwaise und wuchs daher bei Großmutter und Tante in Tampa, Florida, auf, wo er auch durch spätere Adoption seinen neuen Familiennamen Whittaker bekam. Sein Spitzname aus seiner Kindheit, den er später auch als Künstlernamen verwendete entstand durch den Umstand, dass er in Tampa aufwuchs und rothaarig war.
