This is the first label pressing of a record that was re-issued on Duke in 1964.
Frankie Lee [not to be confused with Frankie Lee Sims] is one of the greatest blues singers to have ever come out of Texas. He only recorded 5 singles up until he put out an album in 1984, even though his cousin was Johnny Guitar Watson, even though one of his best friends was Albert Collins, even though he sang for a time with Ike Turner's crew.
Seriously under-recorded back in the day. Other than that, all I've got to say is: Holy Mary Mother of God, what a voice!!! Besides giving the record a listen, check out the video clip below for an extra dose of the chills. About 1:30 in, the-man-cuts-loose.
I think all five of Frankie Lee's more recent albums are still available. And ya know what? They're great. You should def check 'em out.
Hope ya'll enjoy....
