Briefly appearing blind blues singer from the 1970 sci-fi novel After Things Fell Apart. by Ron Goulart. His partner is Cripple Memphis Red. And by partner, it might mean life partner.

"I came here to enjoy this anti-feminine play. I share an anti-feminine view with this troup and you and the old bimbo with the big bazoo are adding to my bias right now."

"Well, I don’t think you should say crap to a blind person."

“That’s all right,” said the frail woman, “I’m only partially blind, young lady.”

"In point of fact," said the fat black man, “I happen to be totally sightless myself. You may even have heard of me. I’m a blues singer. Blind Sunflower Slim."

“Who cares?” said the girl, "Blues are outmoded. Mechanical jazz is what’s of the moment."

"Shut up," cried a redhaired Negro man from across the aisle.

"That’s my partner," said Blind Sunflower Slim. "That’s Cripple Memphis Red himself."

In the 1972 Ron Goulart novel Wildsmith, there is a mention of Blind Sunflower Slim’s Electrified & Sanctified Jook Band.
