Delve into the Rockinitis sounds of mid-fifties to early-sixties Black dance music. Juke joint gear, as chosen by London based record-slinger, Diddy Wah, and Stag-O-Lee’s troublemaker-in-chief, R-Man. If your nights are mis-a-ble and your days blue, salvation can be found right here. These selections aren’t just a mild pick-me-up, this is full-blown electric-guitar blues to make you stand up and shake your hips.
As usual we compile two vinyl LP’s onto one compact disc. Vol. 1 appeared on October 2018 and Vol. 2 saw the light just now. 32 tracks - very close to 80 minutes of raw electric blues.
