This 1957 Silver Text, tri-centre UK London press of one of his very best. An uplifting Rose Marie McCoy composition brilliantly by crashing saxophone partnering Nappy's reaching rich vocal a proper R&B Rocker. Nappy Brown of course has ardent fans in many camps, a R&B exponent who never fails but to raise your mood. This 45 gives of a finger-snapping feelgood atmosphere as Nappy and the buoyant saxophonist bounce and ping-pong off each others enthusiasm. A feelgood guitar interlude adds an extra layer of to this total dance recording.Presented here as the seldom seen British release. Brit-Soul boys will want to own this rarity also just as much as the London collectors or the Rock & Roll congregation. Flip it over over Nappy get's down n' dirty with a Bluesy stroller, as a bar-room piano rattles out the despairing mood of loneliness, with a male vocal group wailing a bemoaning response, deepening the atmosphere... real-deal Nappy Bluers. Two strong sides, whether you like it upbeat and stimulating or you prefer downright sad and sorrowful, this 45 delivers on both styles. Condition Report Fine clean labels, tri-center solidly intact, no writing no stains, sticker marks, or tears. Vinyl reveals some very minuscule like hairlines under strong light. This rarity plays flawless on both sides, listen. Housed in London replica cover.
