Born Joseph Young in Shreveport, Louisiana, he died in Chicago, Illinois. Though born in Louisiana, Young was raised in Milwaukee. He first began playing in the early 1950s by singing in Milwaukee nightclubs. By the mid 1950s, Young had recorded his first song for Jiffy Records in Louisiana.
Before Young became known for his contributions to blues, he was training to become a boxer.
Young was one of the busiest sidemen in Chicago from the late 1950s. He was in Otis Rush's band for several years in the 1960s, and played on Magic Sam's albums, West Side Soul and Black Magic. He recorded his own solo album, Blues with a Touch of Soul, for Delmark Records in 1971. Young also worked alongside Willie Dixon, Billy Boy Arnold and Jimmy Rogers. Young's song, "Turning Point", appeared in the Michael Mann feature film, Thief (1981).
Young died in March 1999 at the age of 71, from a complication of spinal surgery which he hoped would restore his ability to play the guitar.

In VERY loving memory of Mr. Cornelius "Mule" Boyson (1936 - 1994 R.I.P. Gone but NOT forgotten).
@jerryrosen3164
Chicago blues at its absolute finest. No rock bs or playing 1000 notes - just tasteful passionate playing.
@edwarddeeb8692
Underrated blues player first heard him when I saw the theif with James Caan " the bar scene.He is the heart and soul.So thank you mighty Joe for giving me this song on you tube to listen to when I'm down but not out.
@mcdonaldmlengah3343
A man less spoken about but very great. I love his fingers and his voice... the true definition of the blues 😘
@stevetessier6568
Mighty Joe Young, unfortunately, never received the recognition that lesser artists received. Due to the shitty politics. Of the music business. None were more respected by their peers than was Mighty Joe Young. God Bless His Soul Eternally....
@ericletellier9527
Blues really does not get any better than this
@tommyguns9008
You haven’t heard enough blues
@perrydror
I jammed (on blues harp) with Mighty Joe Young in 1970 or 1971 at the Chessmate in Detroit. He made me sing too. His playing was great, but he wasn't terribly comfortable fronting his own band. But when i saw him at the Ann Arbor Blues and Jazz Festival backing up Lucille Span, he absolutely shined. Some musicians just want to serve the music, without standing in the spotlight.
@AndrewVOdom
So good to see him again.... Under-rated..... "LEGEND"!!
@billybigtime2808
His touch is superb on the guitar like the The Glen Hoddle of the blues
