Sorry to bug you with this, but as I wrote it down in my introduction, i'm seeking after the title of a piece I listened to for years (mid 70) and whom performer was a "Sonny".
I made this mp3 with my memories.
This real artwork is played on a MB364 in C (first time I play more than two notes on it).
Maybe it's a piece of Sonny Boy Williamson II?
If the melody reminds you something, tell me, or if you only have clues, don't hesitate: it seems anyway slightly desperate.

I don't remember the name of the program, and it was a bit spotty on older titles, but there is a iPhone app (I think there are other ways to access it too) that you hum or whistle a piece of a song you know and it will try to identify it.
Somewhere in storage I have a cassette tape of an album called 'Piano Sampler'. It was a promo tape that was sent out to a radio station. Maybe because it was just a promo tape the stamped info on the cover has worn of, and do to a tragic washing machine accident (yes another tragic washing machine accident!) the tape is unplayable. I still have it stored in a plastic bag. It was my favorite tape of all time. I have no idea who was on it, only that it was a group of pianists playing at the Boston Pops (or maybe some other major Boston venue) and that one song on it was named Amy). I keep the tape in the vain hope that using some forensic techniques I'll be able to salvage enough information from it to track down the individual recordings.
You'll probably have better luck. We've got a bunch of people around here with pretty good blues knowledge. (Humming the melody didn't help me find the music I was looking for, but it was a pretty obscure piece.) Good luck. :)

Thanks for advises, narrative your unfortunate experience and your encouragements.
Now, because of you, I have got a fixation on a washboard...
