The Sheiks were a '20's Black String Band who were as popular with White audiences as Black, perhaps because they incorporated white musical influences into their blues sound. Their line-up consisted of the famous Chatmon brothers-Sam, Lonnie, and Bo (a.k.a. Bo Carter)-with help from Walter Vinson and Charlie McCoy. Key tracks include That's It; She Ain't No Good; Sitting on Top of the World; Stop and Listen Blues; Shooting High Dice and more.
