Poonanny
dr, *1940
Musician of R&B/Soul and Blues
A.k.a. Hubert Joe Burns
Hubert Joe “Poonanny” Burns was born on January 6,1940 in Birmingham, Alabama. Beginning his professional career as a drummer, Poonanny gradually moved into managing bands and clubs in the 70's. But he found his true calling performing humorous, off-color songs and monologues, gaining a reputation as the "Godfather" of the chitlin' circuit. Distrustful of the music business, Poonanny neither sought nor accepted recording contracts throughout much of his career, but in 1993--persuaded by Tommy Couch, Jr. of Jackson's Malaco Records--he signed with Waldoxy Records and released his debut disc, "Poonanny Be Still".
