Post Description

Texas Style album by Big Joe Turner was released Oct 09, 1992 on the Evidence label. Recorded on April 26, 1971 in Herouville, France. Texas Style music CDs Includes liner notes by David Whiteis. Texas Style songs All songs written or co-written by Big Joe Turner, except "TV Mama" (Lou Willie Turner), "Rock Me Baby" (traditional) and "Tain't Nobody's Bizness If I Do" (P. Texas Style album Grainger/E. Texas Style CD music Robbins). This somewhat obscure Black & Blue session (reissued by Evidence on CD) features the great blues singer Big Joe Turner a year before he hooked up with the Pablo label. Turner is backed by a particularly colorful and supportive trio comprised of pianist Milt Buckner (the master of block chords), bassist Slam Stewart (who takes a few of his trademark solos in which he sings along with his bowed bass) and veteran swing drummer Jo Jones. Turner was still in his prime at the time and, even if his material was not too adventurous, the music (which includes a few newer bluish originals plus such standbys as "Cherry Red" and "'Tain't Nobody's Bizness If I Do") is performed with enthusiasm and solid swing.
