.This 23 track cd collects the best recordings of this Texas based blues shouter whose "Meet Me With Your Black Dress On" was covered extensively in the 1990's. Although he is often grouped with Big Joe Turner, Jimmy Nelson never really shouts the blues, but rather insinuates it. His songs are sly, 3 minute vignettes of bad habits, second hand fools & fine Honey Drippers. This is classic urban blues from a world wise blues man who continues to this day to release great records. (his latest cd is called "Take Your Pick"- available through Bluebeat) 1. Cry Hard Luck 2.
