I'm sure that I have everything on it among the Feathers LPs and CDs I still have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has the same cover but the Saba label imprint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaki Byard with Strings! uses similar instrumentation, although it isn't exactly the same: Piano, Organ – Jaki Byard Violin – Ray Nance Cello – Ron Carter Guitar – George Benson Bass – Richard Davis Drums, Vibraphone – Alan Dawson The title is a bit misleading. The strings are the violin, cello, guitar and bass -- not a full string section like most "with strings" records. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul secor Posted August 20, 2017 Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 Possibly inspired by Jeff's juke box pic, I decided to play some 45's: Doc Terry: Things Can't Stay the Same/Dr. Boogie (DTP) Otis Rush: All Your Love (I Miss Loving) (Cobra) Ray Harris: Come On, Little Mama (Sun) Flash Terry: Her Name Is Lou (Lavender) Good Jelly Bess: (You'll Have To) Come and Get It (Hermitage) - "Good Jelly Bess" is said to have been Billy Lee Riley, though he denied it. He may have at least have played harp on the record. Some sources say that the singer may be Fred Carter, who wrote the song and who was Ronnie Hawkins' guitarist in the Hawks, the precursor to The Band, and later did yeoman work in the Nashville studios. Either way, it's a good enough Jimmy Reed take off to have made the first two editions of Blue Records. Having listened to a later version of the song by Carter on YouTube, I have to go with Riley as the vocalist. I don't think Carter's voice was funky enough.  Screamin' Jay Hawkins: Monkberry Moon Delight (Queen Bee)   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
