Album Notes and Credits

Notes & Personnel Info
Blues legend Roosevelt Sykes was renowned for his prowess on the 88's, and his rollicking, celebratory style. Combining elements of barrelhouse, boogie-woogie, Chicago blues, and R&B, Sykes lit upon an approach to the blues that earned him considerable and sustained popularity throughout the 1930s, '40s, '50s, '60s, and beyond. THE HONEYDRIPPER'S BALL is a 14-track compilation that includes seminal Sykes tunes such as "Driving Wheel" and "Night Time Is the Right Time." This solid set is an excellent place for the uninitiated to start exploring the influential blues pianist.
