Кіріспе
Американдық блюз әншісі және гитарист (1934–2005)
American blues singer and guitarist (1934–2005)
Милтонның "Let Me Down Easy" әні Спенсер Дэвис тобының "The Second Album" (1965) альбомында жазылған, бірақ оның авторлығы жазбада көрсетілмеген. Ол 1968 жылы Checker лейблі арқылы осы әнді жеке сингл ретінде шығарды. Сондай-ақ, Этта Джеймс оны 2011 жылы шыққан соңғы альбомы "The Dreamer" альбомындағы соңғы трек ретінде таңдады. 1960 жылдардың соңында Милтон бірнеше орташа сәттілікке жеткен синглдар шығарды, бірақ 1969 жылға дейін "Grits Ain't Groceries" альбомын шығармады, онда осы аттас әнімен қатар "Just a Little Bit" және "Baby, I Love You" әндері де болды. Сол жылы Леонард Чесс қайтыс болғаннан кейін Милтонның дистрибьюторы Checker Records тоқырады, ал Милтон екі жылдан кейін Stax лейбліне қосылды. Алайда, Stax бұрынғы онжылдықтың соңынан бері қаржылық қиындықтарды бастан өткеріп, 1975 жылы банкротқа ұшырады. Оның соңғы альбомы "Think of Me" 2005 жылдың мамыр айында Telarc лейблінде жарық көрді және оған Ұлыбританиялық Winterville блюз-рок триосының Питер Шолдерінің үш әніне жазба мен гитара енді. Милтон 2005 жылдың 4 тамызында 70 жасында инсульттан туындаған асқынулар салдарынан қайтыс болды. Ол қайтыс болғаннан кейін Инвернестегі Миссисипи блюз жолындағы ескерткішпен құрметтелді. ! width="40"| АҚШ R&B
Milton's song "Let Me Down Easy" was recorded by the Spencer Davis Group on The Second Album (1965), but his authorship was not acknowledged on the record. He released a single of it himself in 1968 on Checker. It was also chosen by Etta James as the final track in her final album The Dreamer in 2011. Throughout the late 1960s Milton released a number of moderately successful singles, but did not issue a further album until 1969, with Grits Ain't Groceries featuring his hit of the same name, as well as "Just a Little Bit" and "Baby, I Love You". With the death of Leonard Chess the same year, Milton's distributor, Checker Records fell into disarray, and Milton joined the Stax label two years later. Stax, however, had been losing money since late in the previous decade and was forced into bankruptcy in 1975. His final album, Think of Me, was released in May 2005 on the Telarc imprint, and included writing and guitar on three songs by Peter Shoulder of the UK based blues rock trio Winterville. Milton died at the age of 70 on August 4, 2005, from complications following a stroke. He was posthumously honored with a marker on the Mississippi Blues Trail in Inverness. ! width="40"| US R&B
