This music was made for jukeboxes in African American areas of the United States and is a companion to 'Juke Joint Jump - 'Whole Lotta Drinkin' on the Block' (JASMCD3172).
The urban juke joints were very influential in the rise of R&B across America during the 1950s and most of the big stars of blues performed regularly in these clubs and this is the era in which most of the music on these two volumes emanated. Despite the passage of time, these 30 recordings rock with a vengeance that should satisfy anyone's dancing feet & feature some of the best down home blues recorded in the post war years................
