Vintage Drug songs gotta love em'!

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Low down dirty R&B, Blues and Jazz songs about illegal substances. This comp shows musicians way before the sixties were singing about their favorite candy. "Save the Roach for me" is a great song sang to comical effect with a rollicking piano, then you got Louis Jordan with "Junco Partner" a song with a calypso flavor, and the great Cab Calloway doing the drug dealer songer called "Man from Harlem. This comp is a must for people who collect strange old music."
