"If you are a fan of true rock and roll rythym and blues then you have to get this collection by Joe Turner.The only reason he wasn't bigger than Elvis or Jerry Lee was his color at the time.Jerry Lee did recognize his songs were good and brought them over to the other side, the side the mommas and daddies listened to behind their kids backs only to learn that the kids were one step ahead.Rock Roll Rythym and Blues was the first great divide that was crossed in this country in the 20th centry that brought us together.Just remember that Big Joe had a big hand in it."
Great cd

"Big Joe Turner is a master of Rhythmn and Blues and this CD is a great representation of his career. Flip Flop & Fly, Corrine Corrina, Shake Rattle & Roll, Midnight Special Train are a few examples of his honest straight forward music with a great band behind him. Play this CD and you can't help but move to the great sound."
