Big Beat Steve Posted January 14, 2017 Report Posted January 14, 2017 (edited) Always enjoyable! This one shows they have done some listening to the Treniers. Their earlier mid-40s sides (reminsicent of The Cats & The Fiddle etc.) were covered quite nicely in the vinyl days by reissues on Krazy Kat and Dr. Horse, and Bear Family did a nice CD reissue of their 50s RCA recordings. Their Mercury recordings where they seommetimes seemed to try to jump on the R'n'R bandwagon (like the Deep River Boys, the Du-Droppers and others) have been a bit under the reissue radar though, it seems. Two months ago I found this one at a local record store clearout sale. Rather on the sentimental ballad side (except for one somewhat more swinging tune) but the cover alone was worth the (very low) price of admission any time. The entire disc is somewhere on Youtube, BTW, for those inclined to listen. Edited January 14, 2017 by Big Beat Steve Quote
JSngry Posted January 14, 2017 Report Posted January 14, 2017 Pretty awesome to think about that being Ed Sullivan in 1952...who else was Sullivan having on in those earliest days? Quote
