Hot Lips Page • In Session CD A musical giant who could hold his own with the swingers and boppers in Carnegie Hall as well as holler the blues in a smoky nightclub, Texas-born Hot Lips Page moving to New York City where he forged his own career in the Big Apple with a small Harlem Jump band that would prove to be influential to the next generation of Jump Blues and R&B performers.This collection cherry-picks 26 of the most culturally important boogie, blues, jump and R&B recordings on which his presence is indelible.Hot Lips Page died in 1954 before he could really take advantage of the impending rock 'n' roll explosion.Without any quantifiable hits of his own, he left his mark on hundreds of astonishing recordings, such as the 1948 chart-topper Good Rockin' Tonight.This celebration of his legacy is long overdue.
