Our Take
Our Take
Ah, Wynonie Harris - the original king of rock and roll, the wild man of rhythm and blues, the man who had more swagger in his pinky finger than most artists have in their entire careers. With his unmistakeable gravelly voice and boundless energy, Wynonie blazed a trail through the music scene in the 1940s, setting the stage for rock and roll to come.
"The Wynonie Harris Collection 1944-47" is a time capsule of Harris at his peak, capturing the raw, unbridled energy that made him a legend. From the infectious swing of "Who Threw the Whiskey in the Well" to the raucous energy of "Playful Baby", Harris's music is a joyful celebration of life, love, and everything in between.
Listening to this album is like stepping into a time machine and being transported back to a smoky, dimly lit juke joint in the Deep South, where the music is loud, the drinks are strong, and the party never stops. It's a rollicking good time from start to finish, and Harris's charisma and charm shine through on every track.
So, if you're looking for a dose of vintage rock and roll with a healthy serving of sass and swagger, look no further than "The Wynonie Harris Collection 1944-47". It's a rollicking good time that will have you dancing in your seat and singing along at the top of your lungs. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
