A guy called John Evans put me on to this Mod rocker in the 1980s

I think it is a perfect rocking RnB 78 and 45 from 1959

any RnB / Mod djs ever tried this one recently ?

 

I have been playing and enjoying this record all week, after cleaning the mushrooms off the 45 it had been away for that long.

Its lively and fun

 

 i am enjoying this 45

Wasn't that label / 45 Ike Turner related, back when he was based (with Tina) out of St Louis. He cut lots of locally based (& visiting) artists in local St Louis studios up till his package relocated to LA.

Very nice - did he make a bad on?  What a great career he had.

 

He was responsible for  Albert King's early recordings - on Bobbin

Cheers guys, I really like the early rockin rnb things , this is one of those records you could easily ignore if you didn't know it on e bay, flicking along.... Oh little Milton, don't know that, but he made hundreds of records, flick to next thing.

 I think it's fantastic 45, and I suspect it's not that common on a 45 these days, just not well known

I feel It's really worth having in your collection if you like this type of thing 

 

i dont know Scott Simpson but fair play for the u tube clip

 

i don't do these u tube things, I don't have the time at the moment
