Nehemiah Curtis James, detto Skip (Bentonia, 21 giugno 1902 – Filadelfia, 3 ottobre 1969), è stato un chitarrista e pianista statunitense. Figlio di un predicatore, fu uno degli ispiratori delle grandi personalità del blues americano. Famoso soprattutto per la sua I'm So Glad, ripresa dai Cream negli anni '60, nel 1931 incise 26 brani che non ebbero molto successo. Fu riscoperto nel 1964, quando riscosse un grande successo al Newport Folk Festival di quell'anno. Leggi di più su Wikipedia
