Further Mellow Cats N Kittens / Various [Import]

• Track Listing

The fifth and final volume of Ace’s series showcasing the mellower side of early R&B and blues features a compelling blend of genre legends together with artists whose fame barely extended beyond their own neighborhoods! All 25 tracks were mastered from recent transfers of original acetates of Modern records, nine of them never before issued on CD, including Why Did You Say We’re Through by Hadda Brooks & Her Trio, and Motel by Jimmy Witherspoon. The audio experience is staggering, especially considering the age of the recordings, and the grooves are smooth, offering a more reserved expression of post-war euphoria!
