27 (TWENTY-SEVEN) MORE RARE & OUT OF PRINT BARRELLHOUSE R&B
Mr. Nightshift | Los Angeles, CA | 12/23/2009
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Because of Popular Demand (Cards, Letters, and maybe Phone Calls) the good folks at Acrobat unearthed MORE RARE, HARD TO FIND and VERY EXPENSIVE recordings from the early to Mid 50's! Several of these tracks are Dubbed from old 78's! The company (Acrobat) let's you know in the liner notes, so you're NOT surprised with the roughness of several of the recordings.Every one of these tracks gives you a clear picture on how hot The Griffin Brothers and Company was! The Griffin Brothers Key Vocalist was Margie Day who is featured on 11 (Eleven) tracks including the Billboard Charted Hit Single: "Street Walkin' Daddy" (#7) and 1 (One) Duet with Buddy Griffin. Buddy Griffin steps out as a Lead vocalist on 5 (Five) tracks! and 4 (Four) Duets with Claudia Swann including the Billboard Charted Hit Single: "I Wanta Hug Ya, Kiss Ya, Squeeze Ya" (#14). BOTH Griffin Brothers are featured as Vocalists on "Fare Thee Well, Pretty Baby". The remaining 5 (Five) tracks are Barrellhouse R&B Instrumentals! Including the Billboard Charted Hit Single: "Hopin'" (#8). This time around you get 79:00 (Seventy-Nine Minutes) of listening, No!, Butt-Shaking Goodies from the 50's!!!"
