"HOT JIVE" Vol. 2

Great collection of dance oriented R&B and rock ’n’ roll.Jive is a dance style in 4/4 time that originated in the United States from African-Americans in the early 1930s. It was originally presented to the public as 'Jive' in 1934 by Cab Calloway. It is a lively and uninhibited variation of the Jitterbug, a form of Swing dance.

BONUS 2 OF 4

Wanda Jackson - The Best of the Classic Capitol Singles (2013)

http://www16.zippyshare.com/v/53667608/file.html

Never mind the titular suggestion of cherry-picking: Omnivore's 2013 set The Best of the Classic Capitol Singles provides the A- and B-sides for the singles Wanda Jackson released on Capitol between 1956 and 1963 (her immortal 1960 45 "Let's Have a Party" was supported by "Cool Love," an A-side from 1957, which explains why this weighs in at an odd 29 tracks). These singles have been chronicled several times before -- Rhino released an excellent set called Rockin' in the Country in 1990, Ace focused on Wanda's rock and country on separate compilations -- but the closest antecedent to The Best of the Classic Capitol Singles is Capitol's 1996 Vintage Collections Series, which focused on the same time period and contains significant overlap with this disc, but Omnivore's collection is the superior compilation and the best single-disc Jackson collection that's ever been assembled. By progressing chronologically, this conveys Jackson's shift from country to rockabilly and back, along with illustrating how adept she was in both styles. Plus, at 29 tracks, The Best of the Classic Capitol Singles is exceptionally generous, providing an immersive introduction to Wanda Jackson's peak that also doubles as a definitive retrospective of this pioneering rocker.

Hi G. Thanks so much for the Nancy and Wanda collections, both far exceeding expectations in every way. Good weekend to you.

Way back when Nancy was too square, she just wasn't hip. Wanda was Country and RocknRollers just didn't bother with her.
Today I kick myself for being such a snob back then. Although Nancy didn't have great talent Lee Hazelwood did and they did some great stuff as is evident in her collection.
Wanda is under appreciated even today but just one listen to any song in this collection will make that evident to anyone.
Thanks to both of them.

Thank you so much for the Wanda Jackson collection.

Owing to an inoperable turntable, she was (at least until this morning) unavailable to me.

Woo!
