SUNNYLAND SLIM & HIS SUNNY BOYS ON HY-TONE CHICAGO 32
- Titles are 'Brown Skin Woman' b/w 'Jivin Boogie'- the Sunny Boys were Lonnie Johnson (electric guitar) and Andrew Harris (bass)..........................................................................................Hy-Tone, owned and operated by Chicago banjoist, guitarist, and bandleader Freddie Williams and jukebox entrepeneur Nathan Rothner from 1946 through 1948, typified the resurgence of recording activity in Chicago after World War II. The tiny company was among the earliest of the small independent labels that emerged and seized the rhythm and blues market from the majors: RCA Victor, Columbia, and Decca. The label could hardly be counted as a commercial success; it expired after a three-year run, with 26 known releases and 52 sides to its name. But by discovering fresh new talent in Chicago's flourishing South Side nightlife scene--notably blues shouters Crown Prince Waterford and Memphis Slim, blues balladeer Jo Jo Adams, electric guitar pioneer Floyd Smith, deep blues pianist Sunnyland Slim, and local tenor sax legend T. S. Mims, Sr.--Freddie Williams and Nathan Rothner did more than help to launch the recording careers of artists who achieved much more success elsewhere. They created a legacy of valued recordings, helping in their own small way to sustain Chicago as a rhythm and blues recording Mecca......................many thanks to a great site http://hubcap.clemson.edu/~campber/hytone.html .
