LITTLE ESTHER PHILLIPS "Mistrustin' & Deceivin'" 1948-1952 Federal/Savoy Labels

Esther Phillips with an influence on the "Little" part; all tracks on this while she was still a teenager. Originally a prot‚g‚ of Johnny Otis, the first half of these tracks are recorded with Esther fronting Otis's spectacular orchestra, performing Otis's material. The first 14 tracks are Otis compositions recorded for Savoy including the #1 R&B smash Double Crossing Blues, recorded as a duet with the Robins, especially bass man Bobby Nunn. Other high points of the Savoy sessions include Misery/ Cupid's Blues, the hilarious Wedding Boogie and just in time for this catalog, Far Away Christmas Blues. After the usual royalty/ business disputes, Phillips left Savoy for Federal records, but for the most part kept Johnny Otis and crew with her working incognito. Of the 11 Federal tracks here, most didn't do nearly as well as her Savoy cuts, but there's great tunes aplenty nonetheless. Other Lips, Other Arms/ The Deacon Moves In/ Aged and Mellow Blues and Turn The Lamps Down Low to name just a few of the great tracks that round this collection out. (JM) (Roots & Rhythms Web Site)

I notice that some blogs are now only using RAPIDGATER, and that you can only DL if you use a premium payment account. I can see in the future that bloggers will set it up where you can only pay them to DL. The money will go directly to them. It seems RAPIDGATOR is bringing it closer to that day.

Gyro!
From my perspective - I follow quite a few blogs - the most used hosters are Zippy, MF, RS and Filepost. The future you mention, if I understand you, would fly right in the face of bloggers' reasons and justifications for sharing; they are not in it a for the money.
Anyway, thanks for wonderful blog!

Bloggers charging download fees would probably raise too much unwanted attention from the record labels and artists, not to mention the tax man. Distributing the music for money is a lot different than sharing.

Zippyshare and MF do a great job, RS is still slowwww.

Thanks again for the great music!

Zippyshare has been fabulous, as has MF for most things. Rapidgator is not as good as DepositFiles, although neither of those are really preferable.

my .02. Keep on keepin' on because your efforts are GREATLY appreciated!
