Description
A brimful CD compilation dedicated to the important R&B pioneer Roy Milton in the continuously updated 'Rocks' series on Bear Family Records®. Milton is considered one of the originators of the jump blues genre on the US West
Coast.
The album features his rockin'est, fast numbers recorded with his great band
between 1946 and '63 for such record labels as Specialty, DooTone, King, Warwick, Cenco and Thunderbird.
Musical highlights include Red Light, Milton's Boogie, Hop, Skip And Jump, Junior Jives, You Got Me Reeling And Rocking and Rocking Pneumonia And The Boogie Woogie Flu.
His 1955 Specialty single What Can I Do is reissued here for the first time on CD.
Johnny 'Junior' Rogers, Roy Gaines and Roy Montrell are three of the outstanding guitarists.
Expertly narrated by Bill Dahl, plus lots of photos and illustrations in the substantial booklet and recordings carefully remastered for this edition. -
