Will the rube who voted "no" for Sonny Boy Williamson please stand up? I reckon that poor soul is either playing a joke or just wet behind the ears, musically speaking.

Should there be two Sonny Boy Williamson pages?

Definitely there should be 2 different pages about:

1) Sonny Boy Williamson I (John Lee Curtis Williamson)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonny_Boy_Williamson_I

2) Sonny Boy Williamson II (Aleck Miller)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonny_Boy_Williamson_II
