5.0 out of 5 stars
a great collection, August 4, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Jump Jive & Swing (Audio CD)
ok, most, if not all of this cd is already released by Rhino in their Blues collection, but who cares? Sure it's double dipping, but this music is at the heart of rock n roll. Yes music fans, Elvis was doing a cover song when he recorded "Hound Dog", and never really approached the nasty twist Big Mama Thorton's vocals gives the original. My only complaint is that there is plenty of other tunes out there Rhino could find, and the company has released these songs before. Still, even though I don't need to buy this to get any of the songs, to see them out again is a delight.
