This LP has been posted a couple of times already, firstly in 2008 and then re-upped in 2015. However, this is the first time that it has appeared with scans of the complete front and back covers, and with disc labels added in too. Sorry about the 12 year wait.

My brief description on the November 2015 re-up post:

"Great King / Federal comp of 1950s chantoozie sides featuring some stompers and some tear stained ballads. All backed by some of the greatest jump and jazz bands of the time, including the Johnny Otis band (anonymously), Earl Bostic, Hot Lips Page, Bill Doggett, Jimmy Coe, Buddy Banks, Lucky Millinder, Roy Milton and Sonny Thompson."
