DESCRIPTION: All Music Review by Scott Yanow
During an era when Big Joe Turner recordings were often surprise hits with rock & roll fans (particularly "Shake, Rattle and Roll"), he occasionally recorded no-nonsense blues-oriented jazz dates too. This reissue album matched Turner for one of the last times with the veteran boogie-woogie pianist Pete Johnson and also includes a variety of top swing players: trumpeter Joe Newman, trombonist Lawrence Brown, altoist Pete Brown, tenor saxophonist Frank Wess, guitarist Freddie Green, bassist Walter Page, and drummer Cliff Leeman. It is not surprising, considering the number of Basie-ites on the date that the band often sounds like a Count Basie combo. Turner is in top form on remakes of some of his early tunes (including "Cherry Red," "Roll 'Em Pete," and "Wee Baby Blues"), a few traditional blues, and a couple of swing standards. This music should appeal to many listeners

April 2017, ROYAL MAIL ANNUAL UK POSTAGE PRICES: (some slight changes)
Those who have bought off me before know that I do not add on any extras.
My prices are based on carefully averaged parcel weights because I use strong recycled cardboard.
LP weights & covers vary considerably, (it is rare that any two parcels are exactly the same weight)
BUYING MORE THAN ONE ITEM:
If you buy more than one item ebay will not automatically calculate the postage savings for combined parcels:
i.e., it costs the same to post 1, 2, or 3 singles to UK, Europe or ROW & 1, 2 or 3 LPs to UK, (see full chart below)
Please email to let me know after an item has finished if you plan to bid on subsequent items - then again when you’re ready for your Invoice, email to let me know & I can then adjust your postage savings. THANK YOU
PLEASE NOTE: I NEVER USE ‘MAILERS’:
I MAKE VERY STRONG PARCELS USING RECYCLED CARDBOARD IN ORDER TO GIVE MAXIMUM PROTECTION IN TRANSIT
