This episode’s featured guest is Jerry Williams Jr., better known as Swamp Dogg, who has been a force in the music world since 1954. His many credits include the song “She’s All I’ve Got” made popular by Freddie North and Johnny Paycheck, and the honor of having the second-worst album cover of all time with “Rat On!” He speaks to me from his home studio in L.A. about his early days as a child prodigy R&B entertainer, his career as a songwriter, recording artist and producer in multiple genres, and his recent resurgence – not a comeback – working with Joyful Noise Recordings.
