R&B FROM THE 50'S.......2007-07-25

GROOVE RECORDS WAS THE SHORT LIVED "RACE RECORDS" SUBSIDIARY OF RCA RECORDS IN THE 1950S. A LOT OF GOOD UPTEMPO R&B RECORDINGS ON THIS CD. NOT MANY WELL KNOWN CUTS ON THE CD, BUT THEY ARE GOOD NEVERTHELESS. IF YOU LIKE R&B MUSIC FROM THE 50S YOU WILL ENJOY THIS CD.
