Excellent valuable remastered cd with some of the best recordings by Robert McCoy, who could be considered as one of the immortal most genuine barrelhouse singers and piano players of the end of the twenties and the first of the thirties His musical and performing personal style, quite close to Pinetop Smith, Cow Cow Davenport, Roosvelt Sykes or Montana Taylor, becomes evident along the twenty one wonderful cuts taken from old Vulcan Records vinils among others, which were mainly recorded between nineteen sixty two and sixty three Robert McCoy was a very vitalistic vigorous singer and piano player with a big powerful technique, a convincing heavy walkin’ bass and a particular way of approaching piano and blues singing A real interesting biographical notes as well as an accurate cover design complete this cd Could we ask for more to Delmark Records label?
