Lee Conley Bradley, known as Big Bill Broonzy, returned from World War I in 1919 and settled in Chicago as a Pullman porter. By 1927, he was recording, his songs chronicling The Great Migration years when trains were both workplace and escape route. 869 views · 39 likes · 3 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →
