During the folk and blues revival of the 1960s Beauregard was "discovered" in Memphis by Bill Barth, who convinced him to work as a musician again. In the short time between his "discovery" in 1968 and his death in 1970, he played at various folk and blues festivals (e.g. the 1968 Memphis Country Blues Festival, which has been recorded on the Sire and Blue Horizon labels) and on a number of compilation albums on such labels as Blue Thumb, Arhoolie und Adelphi.
