Swamp Dogg
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jerry Williams, Jr., (b. 14 July 1942), is a soul music artist who is better known by his pseudonym Swamp Dogg.
Born in Portsmouth, Virginia, Williams made his first recording in 1954 under the moniker "Little Jerry", a 78 rpm single on the Mechanic label titled "HTD Blues" / "Nats Wailing". In 1963 he began using the moniker "Little Jerry Williams", recording with Loma Records, and by 1966 he had dropped the "Little" to record as Jerry Williams.
In 1970 he switched his stage name to "Swamp Dogg" and released his first LP record, Total Destruction to Your Mind. Moving from one record label to another during the next 26 years of his recording career, he finally settled on his own record label S.D.E.G. Records [Swamp Dogg Entertainment Group] in 1996. His latest recording is titled "Resurrection" [2007].
