.What we have for you here is the long-awaited second volume of Willies best Modern recordings. Where the earlier Kat On The Keys focused primarily on Willies later Modern sessions, BOOGIE, BLUES AND BOUNCE brings you the killer cuts from his earliest dates for the label, stretching all the way back to a 1947 audition session that Jules Bihari had the foresight to preserve for the delight of future R&B fans! Here are the sides that built LWLs reputation as a boogie bluesman par excellence, ranging from the cool blues of his Houston-recorded breakthrough hit, Its Midnight, to cerebrally-blasting R&B rockers that were cut in Los Angeles with the cream of the Central Avenue session scene. 01 BEEHIVE JUMP 02 ONCE WAS LUCKY 03 TELL ME BABY 04 BLUES AT SUNSET 05 SO FINE AND BROWN 06 OPEN ROAD BLUES 07 MELLO CATS 08 MERRY CHRISTMAS 09 HUCKLEBUCK WITH WILLIE 10 FRIGHTENED 11 JUST BEFORE SUNRISE 12 LAY YOUR CARDS ON THE TABLE 13 DRINKIN' HADACOL 14 WHY LEAVE ME ALL ALONE 15 ROCKIN' CHAIR MAMA 16 THE MOON IS RISING 17 HURRY BABY 18 TRAIN WHISTLE BLUES 19 I WANT YOU 20 DRINKIN' HADACOL 21 MIDNIGHT WHISTLE 22 FUSS AND FIGHT 23 COME ON BABY 24 FAREWELL
