Photographer: Jeff Hannusch. With the exception of Irma Thomas, this anthology covers female vocalists whose contributions to New Orleans R&B were overlooked or devalued. Both Martha Nelson and Leona Buckles were excellent, uptempo, dance-oriented vocalists who had no trouble maintaining their vocal authority and clout over driving arrangements, and could also handle steamy ballads or confessional material. Buckles' "I'm Waiting (To Give You My Love)" and "Baby We're Through" were exuberantly sung. The Thomas tracks include her outstanding "Don't Mess with My Man" and three other lesser-known early-'60s numbers that weren't smashes, but displayed the majestic voice and dramatic delivery that ultimately became a dominant part of New Orleans soul. These aren't throwaway numbers, despite their obscurity. ~ Ron Wynn Producer: Eddie Bo; Wardell Quezerque; Jeff Hannusch (Reissue)   Technical Info Release Date : 10/26/1988 Original Release Date : 1988 Catalog ID : 2078 Label : Rounder Number of Discs : 1 Runtime : 35m : 16s Studio/Live : Studio Mono/Stereo : Mono SPAR Code : ADD UPC : 00011661207820    Related Videos Randy Jackson: Randy Jack...
