Story

Soundman is introduced as the first character in Steel Ball Run. He is a member of a Native American tribe who learned to read the "white man's" books. When the tribe discovers the books in his tepee, they hunt him down to scalp him. It is then that we see that Soundman has developed a special running technique that allows him to run long distances without having to rest.

Trivia

  • His stand name is derived from Miles Davis album of the same name.

He goes on to say that the name "Sandman" was mistakenly given to him "by your [Johnny's] people."

  • He has an unnamed sister who beats him often.
