Here is one quote:
"Jesse's family moved to Shreveport, where he began to explore the small neighborhood known as Blue Goose, with its cafes, and a handful of barrelhouses offering lively Blues musicians such lap-steel slide guitarist The Black Ace (Babe Turner) and Oscar "Buddy" Woods (who would later record with Louisiana's famed singing governor, Jimmie Davis)."
