AN EXCELLENT COPY OF THIS JUMP JIVER FROM JIMMY WITHERSPOON AND HIS ORCHESTRA ON A UK VOGUE 78
WHO'S BEEN JIVIN' WITH YOU
b/w RAIN RAIN RAIN
Jimmie Witherspoon was an American jazz and jump blues singer, born 8 August 1920 in Gurdon, Arkansas, died 18 September 1997 in Los Angeles, California, USA.
With church music as a major influence, at age 16 Jimmy Witherspoon moved to California where he soaked up a mixture of swing jazz and blues. Influenced by T-Bone Walker and Walter Brown, he began singing in clubs and got introduced to Modern Records in 1947. Building a good relationship with co-owner Jules Bihari, Jimmy recorded extensively for the company throughout the late 40s and 50s.
As his career continued, he became disenchanted with the Modern group and moved on to an array of labels including Chess, Atlantic, Specialty, Vee-Jay and ABC, maintaining his excellent reputation as a bluesman until his death from throat cancer in 1997.
