"SINGLE MAN BLUES" The Talent & Star Talent / Blue Bonnet Blues Anthology

Blue Bonnet and (Star) Talent were Dallas labels. Blue Bonnet Records was formed by Herb Rippa in 1947 in Dallas as a hillbilly label but near the end of Blue Bonnet's three-year existence Rippa began recording a handful of blues artists, most notable being Frankie Lee Sims. Both Willie Lane and Rattlesnake Cooper cut sides for (Star) Talent, a Dallas label owned by father and daughter Jesse and Louise Erickson. The label recorded blues, country and gospel and cut the first sides by Rufus Thomas and Professor Longhair. (Sunday Blues) (This fine collection is now out of print and very hard to find.)
