Many of you may remember that Ron Thompson met Schoolboy Cleve , whose real name is Cleveland White, many decades ago. Ron's very first record, My Heart is Crying, was with Schoolboy in 1972. (Bluesletter, April 2005.) Schoolboy came out to jam with Ron in July at a blues festival held at Jackson Rancheria Casino.
