Description

FAR AND AWAY ELMORE'S BEST RECORDINGS. ALL TRAKS WERE CULLED FROM THE U.$. KENT/FIRE FURY CATALOGS AND RELEASED U.K. IN '65. WHERE WOULD THE BRITISH BLUES BOOM BEEN WITHOUT THIS GEM!! FROM THE STINGING FIRST NOTES ON "DUST MY BLUES" IT IS TOTALLY ELECTRIFYING. HEAR THE ORIGINAL "SHAKE YOU'RE MONEYMAKER" AND THRILL TO THE BEAUTY OF " THE SKY IS CRYING"(LOOK AT THE TEARS ROLL DOWN THE STREET). ELMORE ALSO PULLS "ROLLIN' AND TUMBLIN'" OUT OF THE BAG UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF THE GREAT BOBBY ROBINSON AND FINDS THE GUITARS BOTTOM NOTES ON THE INSTRUMENTAL "BOBBY'S ROCK". SAYING THE BLUES IS A LIMITED FORMAT DOES NOT HOLD UP WHEN ALBUMS LIKE THIS EXIST. A SCORCHER. SLEEVE NOTES ARE BY GUY STEVENS AND THE SUE SINGLES CATALOG FROM WI-301 THRU TO WI-352 IS PRINTED ON THE BACK SLEEVE. 35 MINUTES 56 SECONDS OF BLUES BLISS. IT'S ON SUE RECORDS Cat. No. ILP 918 AND THE RECORD AND SLEEVE ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION.
