Roy Brown-Wynonie Harris • Battle Of The Blues-Vol 1



Review by Stephen Cook
This first volume of King's Battle of the Blues series features two of the label's biggest acts: Roy Brown and Wynonie Harris. Having already made their names in the late '40s as premier blues shouters on the R&B and jump blues circuit, both singers migrated to the Cincinnati independent and reached even loftier chart heights. Brown takes up the first side with seven sides of his animated and gospel-fired vocals, including the classic "Boogie at Midnight." For his part, Harris indulges his rougher-hewn vocal cords for an update of his big smash, the Brown-penned "Good Rockin' Tonight," and one of his all-time King highlights, "Bloodshot Eyes." For some whiskey-soaked R&B nostalgia, this fine collection is hard to beat.

Revisión por Stephen Cook
Este primer volumen de la serie King's Battle of the Blues presenta dos de los actos más importantes del sello: Roy Brown y Wynonie Harris. Ya habiendo hecho sus nombres a finales de los años 40 como los mejores cantantes de blues en el circuito de R&B y jump blues, ambos cantantes emigraron a Cincinnati de forma independiente y alcanzaron niveles aún más elevados. Brown ocupa el primer lado con siete lados de sus voces animadas y de gospel, incluido el clásico "Boogie at Midnight". Por su parte, Harris se complace con sus cuerdas vocales más ásperas para una actualización de su gran éxito, el "Good Rockin 'Tonight" escrito por Brown y uno de sus momentos más destacados de King, "Bloodshot Eyes". Para un poco de nostalgia de R&B empapada en whisky, esta excelente colección es difícil de superar.
