Shout, Rattle and Roll

Shout, Rattle and Roll (2005) more music like this

by Big Joe Turner

In his informative and wildly irreverent book Unsung Heroes of Rock 'n' Roll, Nick Tosches devotes a chapter to the life and career of blues shouter Big Joe Turner, whom he repeatedly refers to as "a big fat f ** k." Part of the charm of Tosches' book is he manages to make this sound like a compliment, and after listening to the exhaustive box set ...

Live at the Metropole Cafe, New York City

Live at the Metropole Cafe, New York City (1989) more music like this

by Lionel Hampton & His Orchestra

Although Lionel Hampton is heard on these live dates at the head of a big band, the vibraphonist takes nearly all of the solo space on the 11 selections included on this CD. Pinnoccio James has two vocals and tenor saxophonist Andrew McGhee stretches out on "Flying Home," but otherwise this is very much a Hampton showcase. Even on the ten minutes ...
