Personnel: Lou Rawls (vocals); Herb Ellis (guitar, piano); Jimmy Bond (bass guitar); Tommy Strode (piano); Earl Palmer (drums). Audio Remixer: Ron McMaster. Liner Note Author: Kenn y Washington. Recording information: Capitol studios, Los Angeles, CA (01/31/1966/02/01/1966). Introduction by: Johnny Mangus. Long before he became known as a smooth pop balladeer in the 1970s, Lou Rawls was a powerful vocalist whose rich baritone ably blended soul, pop, jazz, and blues. This 1966 live album finds Rawls at the peak of his early period, backed by a small combo of great jazz/R&B players and tackling a program of classic blues tunes with characteristic verve and class.
