"Black Tootsie Roll" (Still CD)

Another fine collection of rockin' rarities. This one includes a few cuts from the early 50s in an older jump blues style from Tippo Lite, Dave Bartholomew (his great commercial for beer Good Jax Boogie) and Preston Love. It also includes Albert & Charle's fine slide guitar instrumental Weird plus sides by Dean & Jean, Rosetta Perry, Bobby Martin, J. Mercy Baby, Bob Mackey & King Alex Band, Bobby & The Troubadours, L.D. Ludy, Shorty Billups, The Asiatics, T.C. Crumpler & Bobbie Richard & Band (a fine version of She Fooled Me which was also recorded by Billy Boy Arnold and Eddie Hope & The Mannish Boys), Carmen Davis & Ernie Freeman's Combo and others. There's also some Jamaican R&B from bluebeat pioneer Laurel Aitken - Boogie In the Bones. (Frank Scott, Allmusic) trax:
