ELMORE JAMES "Wild About You - The Complete Meteor/Flair/Modern Singles" CD
★2020 remastered edition
This compilation contains all the SP/single works by the undisputed blues giant Elmore James on the Modern label, including Meteor, Flare, and Modern! A new must-have album has been born!
Elmore James has influenced many musicians, from Hound Dog Taylor to Derek Trucks, with his passionate, deep vocals and powerful bottleneck guitar that digs into the hearts of listeners. This album covers all of the singles released during his absolutely modern record era, from 1953 to 1956. From his trademark triple-plot Bloom-style numbers, to songs featuring piano and saxophone, with the Bloomdusters sound exploding with a southern feel, urban, and jumping feel, to tasteful blues ballads, this is Elmore! If you had to choose one album, this would be the definitive edition that I would highly recommend! Elmore is the best!
