| Riff Ridin |
| Saxophone, a sound which dominated popular music prior to the rise of the electric guitar in the mid 1950s. Celebrating those honkin' heroes of the late 1940s and early 1950s, in addition to the usual exciting instrumentals, this collection offers a batch of scarce examples of renowned R&B tenor-men such as Red Prysock, Eddie Chamblee and Lucky Thompson singing as well as blowing sax!. |
