Atlantic Rhythm & Blues 1947-1974 [Box]

Atlantic Rhythm & Blues 1947-1974 [Box] (1991) more music like this

by Various Artists

This eight-CD set should be a part of any collection that presumes to take American music -- not just rock & roll or rhythm & blues -- seriously. Atlantic Records was one of dozens of independent labels started up after the war by neophyte executives and producers, but it was different from most of the others in that the guys who ran it were ...

Big Joe Turner's Greatest Hits

Big Joe Turner's Greatest Hits (1951) more music like this

by Big Joe Turner

Big Joe Turner's music is the aural equivalent of a rare Porterhouse steak -- oversized, juicy, and a glorious overload for the senses, and if isn't always good for you, that's just part of the fun. Whether what he was singing was billed as jazz, swing, rhythm & blues, or rock & roll, Turner pretty much always did things the same way, rolling with ...

The Platinum Collection (2007) more music like this

by Big Joe Turner

This is a righteous 21-track collection culled from the Rhino triple-disc set issued in the 1990s. Certainly all the well-known singles are here, such as "Shake, Rattle and Roll" and "Corrina, Corrina," Leiber & Stoller's "The Chicken and the Hawk," and Turner's own "Oke-She-Moke-She-Pop," "Flip, Flop, and Fly," and "Honey Hush."

Big, Bad & Blue: The Big Joe Turner Anthology

Big, Bad & Blue: The Big Joe Turner Anthology (1994) more music like this

by Big Joe Turner

This three-record anthology shows how Turner, without really ever changing his style, moved from strict Kansas City swing to pioneering rock & roll and back to basic jazzy blues. It contains 62 songs, everything from treasured hits to slow, sweltering ballads, strident up-tempo wailers, moaning blues, novelty tunes, and fiery pieces with lyrics ...
