From L.a. To N.y.c. Via Nashville

VARIOUS

The tracks gathered here cross America from West to East, from Los Angeles to New York City via Nashville. A vital hub for musicians of every kind and here featuring among many others T Bone Walker, Little Richard, Jimmy Witherspoon, Joe Turner, Louis Jordan and Screamin Jay Hawkins. From the West comes Blues and Rock and Rhythm & Blues, from Nashville comes the unique blend of Blues and Soul that captivated the city, from New York comes both Rhythm & Blues and Blues. Some artists perform solo, most have band accompaniment. Some play acoustic instruments, others enliven their efforts with electricity. Some perform in clubs and juke joints, others play theatres and concert halls. Whatever their mode of delivery and wherever they perform, they epitomise the ubiquity of Blues and Soul. Compilation features such major artists as T Bone Walker, Little Richard, Lightnin' Hopkins, Louis Jordan and Ray Charles.
