Various Artists - Boss Black Rockers Vol. 6 - Mardi Gras Rock

African American music, especially blues and rhythm n blues, gave the hillbilly and country sound of the 30s and 40s the wings, or rather the hips, to start a worldwide triumph as rock n roll. Although Rock n Roll was also a label to introduce the white audience to the disreputable black rhythm n blues, its protagonists did not stop playing their newly named music in the 50s, long before Civil Rights Movement built popular music's first delicate bridges between the separate spheres of Black and White. With the fourth Boss Black Rockers episode, 28 songs again show the vitality of the rhythm n blues, many of which are only known to connoisseurs, including artists such as Joe Tex, The Egyptians, Clarence Frogman Henry, Robert Parker, The Vibes, Roy Mr. Guitar Gaines, Billy Lamont, Big Al Downing, Jim Breedlove and many more.
