Lets get it!

Computer problem solved much sooner than I expected. I'm back in business.

Edgar Blanchard was one of the top hot-shit guitarists in New Orleans for years and years. He arranged and played on more records than anyone will ever be able to count.

This record was originally recorded for Ace but then leased out to Joe Ruffino at Ric/Ron where it was issued in 1959. It's important because it got Blanchard a job working for Ruffino as A&R man. Other than that, you don't see the 45 all that often.

Blanchard's the guy who created the early Ric/Ron sound, not to mention being a heavy influence on much of what had been previously released on the Chess label through Paul Gayten [that's him playing on Gayten's "Driving Home"].

Hope ya'll enjoy...
