Maxwell Davis and his Tenor-sax, OFFICIAL 6064

:tup Maxwell Davis is the overlooked hero of West Coast Rhythm & Blues. He produced, arranged, or played on (sometimes did all three):

Amos Milburn: Chicken Shack Boogie & Bad Bad Whiskey

Percy Mayfield: Please Send Me Someone To Love

Charles Brown: Black Night

Lowell Fulson: Tramp

Floyd Dixon: Telephone Blues

Peppermint Harris: I Got Loaded

Etta James: Roll with Me Henry

The Cadets: Stranded in the Jungle

Jesse Belvin: Goodnight My Love

Marvin & Johnny: Cherry Pie

Roy Hawkins: The Thrill Is Gone

B.B. King: Every Day I Have the Blues, You Upset Me Baby, Sweet Little Angel, & Sweet Sixteen

plus a long list of other recordings that weren't hits, but were fine records, nonetheless.

Charles Brown: One More for the Road (Blue Side) - the best of Mr. Brown's later recordings

Great record! I have the CD on Alligator. I assume it's the same material.

It is. Blue Side went under after issuing only a few records. I only remember the Charles Brown and a reissue of James Carr Goldwax sides - there may have been a couple of others. Alligator picked up the Charles Brown. Good move on their part - at least as far as the music goes. Don't know how many it's sold, but the music is great.
