This special release includes 30 studio tracks, consisting of a selection of the sensational recordings Washington made for the oft-overlooked Sue, J&S, and Neptune labels, as well as for the major ABC-Paramount, between 1958 and 1962. Twelve of these splendid songs would conform Washington's debut LP, the iconic That's How Heartaches are Made, originally issued by Sue Records. All of these great songs have been remastered in this collector's edition, which gives ample proof of Baby Washington's versatility as well as her rightful place in the R&B and early soul pantheon.

This single-CD reissues the second batch of Betty Carter recordings, her Peacock and ABC-Paramount dates which followed her Epic/Columbia titles by two years. Formerly available as a two-LP set (What a Little Moonlight Can Do), the 24 selections find the already-distinctive vocalist carving out her own sound from the bebop tradition; her more innovative work was in the future. Quite a few of the renditions are memorable including "I Can't Help It" (which is somewhat autobiographical), "You're Driving Me Crazy," "What a Little Moonlight Can Do," "Jazz (Ain't Nothin' but Soul)" and "Don't Weep for the Lady." While the second half of the CD has Carter accompnied by an orchestra arranged by Richard Wess, the first 12 numbers feature such top players as trumpeters Ray Copeland and Kenny Dorham, either Jerome Richardson or Benny Golson on tenor and pianist Wynton Kelly. Highly recommended.

This unusual session consists of a complex six-movement suite by J.J. Johnson featuring Dizzy Gillespie's trumpet over a brass choir (six trumpets, two trombones, two bass trombones, four French horns and two tubas), bass, drums, percussion and two harps. Often reminiscent of classical music, Johnson's writing allows plenty of room for Gillespie to improvise. The result is a rather unique set of music that is well worth searching for.

On December 3, 1963, at age 62, when most folks are thinking about retirement, Louis Armstrong recorded the sprightly "Hello, Dolly!," the title song for a Broadway show. Thus began a six year-long series of recordings that brought arguably most important 20th Century musician back into the limelight and, in fact, gave him his greatest recording successes ever.

The most popular exponent of the classic New Orleans R&B sound, Fats Domino sold more records than any other black rock & roll star of the 1950s. His relaxed, lolling boogie-woogie piano style and easygoing, warm vocals anchored a long series of national hits from the mid-'50s to the early '60s. Through it all, his basic approach rarely changed. He may not have been one of early rock's most charismatic, innovative, or threatening figures, but he was certainly one of its most consistent.

Following in the wake of Fats Domino, Lloyd Price helped define the distinctive New Orleans R&B sound when he recorded his landmark 1952 No. 1 R&B hit “Lawdy Miss Clawdy” at his very first session for Specialty, with Domino on piano, and had a string of R&B Top 10 hits before being drafted in 1954. On his return, he had been usurped by Little Richard and Larry Williams, and eventually set up his own label KRC before signing to ABC-Paramount, re-inventing himself as a rock ‘n’ roll chart topper with his 1958 pop and R&B No. 1 “Stagger Lee”, following it up with the pop/R&B crossover classics “Personality” and “I'm Gonna Get Married”, and racking up a dozen more hits through into the early ‘60s.

Ray Charles' explorations into country music were no mere dalliance. They have their genesis in "I'm Movin' On," the last record he made for Atlantic before moving on to ABC Paramount in 1960. But it was with the enormously successful Modern Sounds in Country & Western series of albums in 1962 (and the career making single "I Can't Stop Lovin' You") that made their mark, crossing over genre boundaries that were unthinkable at the time. An African-American doing hillbilly music was not a first, nor were uptown arrangements of hillbilly songs, but here was the Genius of Soul validating the music of the white working class, plain and simple.

This set collects tracks from the Impressions' early-'60s years with ABC-Paramount and includes classic tracks like "It's All Right," "Keep on Pushing," "Gypsy Woman," "I'm So Proud," and the majestic "People Get Ready" along with later-era Impressions sides like "This Is My Country" and "Choice of Colors," which show lead tenor vocalist and songwriter Curtis Mayfield blossoming toward his subsequent solo career. It would all add up to a fine introduction to the glorious gospel-pop of this influential and just plain wonderful Chicago soul group if these were indeed the original versions, but they appear to be either re-recordings or redone mixes which doesn't negate the songs, but it is bothersome.
