Amusing Salacious Old Time Rock 'n Roll/Swing Blues
KC | Northern CA | 12/06/2006
(2 out of 5 stars)
"Back in the day, you couldn't come out and just sing anything that comes to mind, you had to couch them in songs with subtle titles and lyrics such as, "Mountain Oysters," or er, less subtle, "Drill, Daddy, Drill."
The problem is after all this time, they're really not that clever anymore and in particular the selections on this CD - unlike the "clsssics" of this sub genre like "60-Minute Man, " or "Back Door Man," (NOT on this CD) the songs on this CD are at best amusing and really more interesting from a historical perspective.
So, if you're a completist early r&b collector or a collector of anything remotely sexual/salacious from early r&r, then you add another star to this CD but otherwise, there are much better collections & compilations of salacious/hidden code r&b/early rock."
