Short story:

Acoustic blues guitarist and vocalist Blind Boy Fuller dies at home in Durham, North Carolina, USA, as a result of an infected bladder and kidney failure, probably caused by excessive drinking. After his death, his protégé Brownie McGhee will record The Death of Blind Boy Fuller for Okeh Records, and then will reluctantly undertake a short-lived career as Blind Boy Fuller No. 2 so that Columbia Records can cash in on his popularity.
