Joe McCoy played music under a variety of stage names but is best known as "Kansas Joe McCoy." Born in Raymond, Mississippi, he was the older brother of blues accompanist Papa Charlie McCoy.

 Memphis Minnie - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Her second marriage and recording debut came in 1929, both with Kansas Joe McCoy, when a Columbia Records talent scout heard them playing in a Beale Street barbershop in their distinctive "Memphis style", and their song "Bumble Bee" became a hit.
She and McCoy broke up in 1935 and by 1939 she was with Little Son Joe, with whom she recorded nearly 200 records.
In 1961, Joe died and Minnie suffered a stroke which forced her to spend the rest of her life in nursing homes until she died in 1973.

 Amazon.ca: Real Mccoy (Rm): Music: McCoy Tyner   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
McCoy is kind enough to remind us of the motif a few times during his solo, and decorates it quite nicely.
Joe Henderson had played in front of Tyner and Jones several times, including the classic quartet date Inner Urge (also on Blue Note); this is among his best playing of the 60s, along with Larry Young's Unity.
Joe Henderson's sax is a perfect foil for Tyner's comping and compositions, and Ron Carter holds it all together.

 Joe McCoy - Free Music Downloads, Videos, CDs, MP3s, Bio, Merchandise and Links
Alongside his younger brother Charlie, Joe McCoy is enshrined among the greatest sidemen in blues history, his spartan slide style most notably preserved on the landmark recordings of his wife Memphis Minnie.
Born in May 11, 1905 in Jackson, Mississippi, he was primarily known as Kansas Joe McCoy, but his laundry list of aliases includes appearances as the Hillbilly Plowboy, Mud Dauber Joe, Hamfoot Ham, the Georgia Pine Boy and Hallelujah Joe.
With his eloquent, inventive guitar work and deep vocals, McCoy could well have risen to stardom in his own right, but he appeared to prefer his sideman role, and after his divorce from Minnie he and sibling Charlie formed the Harlem Hamfats, recording regularly between 1936 and 1939.

The group was comprised of Herb Morand, trumpet; Odell Rand, Eb clarinet; Horace Malcolm, piano; Joe McCoy, guitar; Charlie McCoy, mandolin; John Lindsay or Ransom Knowling, bass; Fred Flynn or Pearlis Williams, drums.
The discs are an important link between blues and jazz, between the boogie-woogie and city blues fads of the 1930s, between swing and the jump or rhythm and blues bands of the post-World War II era.
The McCoy brothers bring a countrified blues sensibility to the numbers that weirdly enough meshes fairly readily with Morand's smooth swing style and Rand's sometimes frenetic noodling.
