Digitally re-mastered and expanded edition of this magnificent 1959 debut album from the R&B/Rock 'n' Roll legend. Born in New Orleans and raised in California, Larry Williams is from the hard-driving "upsetting" school of R&B, whose fellow classmates included Little Richard and Robert Parker. He was a good-looking, piano-pounding singer/songwriter, a rough, rowdy Rock 'n' Roller who wrote and recorded some of the best songs of the '50's. a seriously underrated artist, his influence reached far beyond his meager chart tally. John Lennon was a big Williams fan and the Beatles covered no less than three of his prime cuts on their earlier albums!. 24 tracks. Hoo Doo Records. 2010.
