Way you been acting is such a drag...


Just in case ya'll haven't figured it out yet, Earl King RULES....

I'm pretty sure the record is from 1961, but that's just from off the top of my head.

Sometime in 1963, King signed with Motown, who wouldn't issue any of his records. Thus you have the fabulous 'Professor Longhair' recordings on the Watch label, which were always meant to be Earl King singles, but could not be issued as such.

Enjoy

    Wow! What a great blog you have. Listening to your old tunes brings me back to my teen in New Orleans.

    Make me want to dust off my old 45s, but unfortunately, I didn't take good care of them.

    Thanks for sharing.
