Ike Turner is a man of many talents, including guitarist, pianist, bandleader, producer, and talent scout. This LP reissue (recorded 1952-54) of a rare album released by Modern label Crown in 1963 allows you to fully enjoy his guitar talents, which earned him Rolling Stone magazine's 148th place in their list of the 250 Greatest Guitarists of All Time.

In addition to the three Zundoko Rumba Blues instrumentals "Cubano Jump", "Loosely" and "Cuban Get Away", which are popular among DJs and are the origin of the perverted and angry guitar instrumentals that were made heavy use of the tremolo arm, the album also includes the best rockin' blues with lead vocals by Dennis Binder, who was a featured singer in the Kings of Rhythm, the strongest blues/R&B troupe in the 50s led by Ike, who was active nationwide, mainly in the southern United States. Dennis Binder's singles and songs that were unreleased at the time are also included, making this a superb blues/R&B album.
