| | Description: | â?˘ Roy Brown, one of the all-time greats of early rhythm 'n' blues and jointly responsible for the
breakthrough success of rock and roll - ROCKS!
â?˘ His Good Rocking Tonight from 1948 is regarded as an epitome of early rocking R&B and constitutes a
cornerstone of R'n'R!
� That rocker and 29 additional tunes in the most comprehensive CD series on Bear Family Records® are
pure energy from a fantastic blues shouter!
â?˘ The album features recordings from 1948-51 (DeLuxe), 1952-55 (King), 1956-58 (Imperial) and 1960
(Home of the Blues), including Rockin' At Midnight, Boogie At Midnight, Butcher Pete, Hurry Hurry Baby,
Gal From Kokomo and Ain't No Rocking No More.
â?˘ Carefully mastered and accompanied by a detailed biography of Bill Dahl in the illustrated 36-page
booklet, this CD fits seamlessly into the series of great rockers in our ROCKS series!
Few figures in the history of postwar rhythm and blues played a larger role in the development of rock and roll than Roy
Brown, even if he wasnâ??t able to cash in on his innovations. Brownâ??s Good Rocking Tonight was a clarion call to a
tremendously exciting future when it broke through in 1948, even though Wynonie Harrisâ?? cover stole away much of its
chart thunder. Bear Familyâ??s 30-track â??Roy Brown Rocksâ?? pays loving tribute to this R&B pioneer, tracing the mighty
blues shouter from his earliest days on the Braun brothersâ?? DeLuxe label, where he scored his biggest hits from 1948
through â??51, through his sizzling 1952-55 sides for Syd Nathanâ??s King Records and then his brief 1956-58 career rebirth
at Imperial Records, when New Orleans A&R man Dave Bartholomew updated the Louisiana nativeâ??s sound and got him
back on the charts. 1960â??s Rocking All The Time for Ruben Cherryâ??s Home of The Blues label in Memphis summarizes
Royâ??s entire career; his DeLuxe sides Rockinâ?? At Midnight, Boogie At Midnight, and the incredibly graphic two-part
Butcher Pete and the scalding King label jumps Hurry Hurry Baby, Gal From Kokomo, and Ainâ??t No Rocking No More
spotlight an incredible singer boasting a sky-high church-trained tenor who rewrote all the rules behind the mic when it
came to R&B vocalists, backed by a band he aptly christened The Mighty-Mighty Men. Whatâ??s more, his 1957 hit
rendition of Let The Four Winds Blow stands as definitive. As long as we have Roy Brownâ??s priceless recordings to
remember him by, the good rocking need never stop. - Few figures in the history of postwar rhythm and blues played a larger role in the development of rock and roll than Roy Brown, even if he wasn't able to cash in on his innovations.
