Douglas was a Mississippi blues man born in 1913 who relocated to the San Francisco Bay Area in the mid 1940s. Unlike other West Coast blues men like Lowell Fulson, who played sophisticated Urban Blues, Douglas continued to play primarily solo acoustic Country Blues in the style of artists like Tommy Johnson and Jesse Fuller. He apparently benefited some from the blues revival of the late 1950s and early '60s, recording a number of albums for the West Coast-based Arhoolie label, among others. His song "Mercury Blues" has been covered often, most notably by Steve Miller, David Lindley and Alan Jackson. Jackson's and Miller's versions were both on multi-million selling albums.
