Cadillac Zack, who wears a lot of hats on behalf of Elmore James Jr., was recently interviewed by Mark Grove of the Canadian Guitar Player blog. Zack talks mostly about his gear in this article. The author also gives a little CZ history.

I've had the pleasure of knowing Zack for several years. He's a good friend, a fantastic performer, and dedicated guardian and curator of the blues. The genre owes him a great debt.

Zack, who manages and books Elmo through the American Blues Legends company, produced and played on Elmo's latest CD, Daddy Gave Me the Blues.
