Stax 702 GUS CANNON Walk Right In

1963 LP

Rare as hens teeth Stax album recorded in 1963 by veteran singer/ banjo and jug player recorded in the wake of the success of the Rooftop Singers' bit hit with Gus's song Walk Right In which Gus had recorded in 1929. He was still an entertaining performer accompanied by Will Shade on jug and Milton Robey on washboard. Gus does 12 songs and a three minute narration where he reminisces about his life. Apparently only 500 copies of the LP were pressed and only distributed in Memphis area which is why it is so rare today.

Side 1: Narration/ Kill It/ Walk Right In/ Salty Dog/ Going Around The Mountain/ Ol’ Hen/ Gonna Raise A Ruckus Tonight
Side 2: Ain’t Gonna Rain No More/ Boll-weevil/ Come On Down To My House/ Make Me A Pallet On Your Floor/ Get Up In The Morning Soon/ Crawdad Hole
