The classics come from the original group formed in the 1940s, after Louis began his musical career with Chick Webb's swing big band in the late 1930s. Louis took the swing sound and developed it into Jump Blues, an explosive blend of jazz and boogie-woogie, of which he became the leading figure in the 1940s and 1950s. This sound, of course, laid the groundwork for the R\u0026amp;B that took the world by storm in the late 1950s and 1960s and led to the birth of rock 'n' roll. The new tracks are from the reformed Louis Jordan \u0026amp; His Tympany Five across two platforms. Albums recorded by the group between 1956 and 1959. \"Somebody Up There Digs Me,\" recorded in New York in 1956 and produced by none other than Quincy Jones, features jazz luminaries such as Budd Johnson, Ernie Royal, Jimmy Cleveland, Wendell Marshall, and Charlie Persip. \"Man, We're Wailin'\" showcases the Hammond organ virtuoso Jackie Davis (AMSC1202), accompanied by Austin Powell on tenor saxophone and Dorothy Smith on backing vocals.All the hits are here: \"Saturday Night Fish Fry\"; \"Is You Is Or Is You Ain't Ma Baby\"; \"Five Guys Named Moe\"; \"Let The Good Times Roll\"; \"Choo Choo Ch Boogie\"; \"Beans And Cornbread\"; \"Caldonia\"; \"Ain't Nobody Here But Us Chickens\"; \"Fat Back And Corn Likker\" and, to keep the boundless energy going, \"Whiskey Do Your Stuff\".And after CD1, if you're not too tired, you can sit back and relax. What a joy to rediscover these classics in their new versions on CD2! Let the party begin!","brand":"Louis Jordan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57489930813784,"sku":null,"price":23872853.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en-us\/products\/louis-jordan_five-classic-albums-louis-jordan-his-tympany-five_2026_uvm","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
