Sonny Boy Williamson was one of the most influential of the early blues harmonica players. KING BISCUIT TIME refers to his popular 15-minute radio show broadcast which, beginning in 1938, was sponsored by the Interstate Grocery Company, and originated out of Helena, Arkansas every afternoon at 12:45 p.m. over radio station KFFA.

Recorded in 1951, many of the selections on KING BISCUIT TIME were originally issued as 78s on the Trumpet label, while others were taken directly from his radio show. KING BISCUIT TIME includes Elmore James' original recording of "Dust My Broom" for the Trumpet label. There is also a complete transcription of a "King Biscuit Time" radio program, taped shortly before Williamson's death on May 26, 1965.
