"Rockin' The Blues" The Movie 1955 (Relic 7143)

A seeming anomaly from the good folks at Relic Records, an actual movie soundtrack disc, but then this particular movie is right down Relic's alley, a 1955 variety show featuring the Harptones, the Wanderers, Linda Hopkins, the Miller Sisters, and the Hurricanes…...Not great cinema perhaps, but certainly great music. Featured live performances include High Flyin' Baby, Ou Wee Baby, and Mambo Boogie by the Harptones; My First, Last, and Only Girl and Sweetie Pie by the Wanderers; Fast Movin' Mama and T.V. Is the Thing by Connie Carroll; You May Not Know by the Hurricanes; and Everybody's Havin' a Ball by the Miller Sisters. A musical program well worth adding to your 50's rhythm and blues collection.
