| | Description: | Rock & Roll, indeed. Ruth Brown??s full-length debut symbolizes what
was exciting, fresh, invigorating, and raw about the burgeoning style
in its halcyon days. Originally released in 1957, and reissued here
in audiophile quality for the first time in partnership with Atlantic
Records?? 75th anniversary, the set remains a testament to one of the
most pioneering and talented vocalists to ever command a stage. In
an era dominated by big-throated vocalists, few came grander than
Brown. The singer, whose million-selling ??50s success with Atlantic
Records led many to call the then-indie label ??The House That Ruth
Built,? charted two dozen R&B hits in the span of a decade for the
fledgling imprint. Rightly coined ??Miss Rhythm,? she established a
precedent that would ultimately lead to Grammy and Tony Awards.
Her finest early works, 14 of which are collected on Rock & Roll,
have lost none of their fire or flair.
Mastered on the label??s renowned mastering system in California,
pressed at RTI, and strictly limited to 2,000 numbered copies,
Mobile Fidelity??s 180g mono LP of Rock & Roll plays with an
immediacy, vibrancy, and fullness that showcase the reach, power,
and emotionalism of Brown??s voice. The sound of her support
musicians ?? brassy horns, swinging rhythm combos, echoing
backing vocalists, rollicking pianists, jaunty guitarists ?? is made
clear and vivid, helping the upbeat fare to jump, juke, and jive with
newfound energy and exuberance. Similarly, Brown??s slower, more
understated material crackles with an intimacy and passion that let
you know you??re in the presence of a woman who has lived what
she sings. Experience it all on a sizzling reminder of a legacy that
will never be forgotten. - 180GThe Dynamite Sound of 'Miss Rhythm' and the Singer That Helped Build an Iconic Label: Ruth Brown's Rock & Roll Bristles with Electrifying Emotion, Vocal Power, and R&B-Fueled EnergyReissued in Audiophile Quality in Partnership with Atlantic Records' 75th Anniversary: Mobile Fidelity 180g Mono LP Is Pressed at RTI and Strictly Limited to 2,000 Numbered CopiesRock & Roll, indeed.
