Description by OLDIES.com:
Gathering at the crossroads of doo-wop and blues, the compilation known as "Blues Meets Doo Wop Volume 2" presents a captivating blend of two distinct musical genres. The curator, aptly dubbed The “Mojo” Man, has been entrusted with the task of crafting a tracklist that seamlessly merges the soulful sounds of blues with the harmonious melodies of doo-wop. What sets this second volume apart, and lays the groundwork for subsequent releases in this innovative album series, is the rarity of witnessing blues and doo-wop coalesce in such perfect harmony.
Blues Meets Doo Wop Volume 2 serves as a testament to the serendipitous intersections between these genres. Artists from both realms, whether by design or happenstance, traversed the same pathways of recording studios and record labels, often sharing backing musicians along the way. Through this collection, Koko Mojo invites listeners to delve into a version of history where blues and doo-wop engage in a compelling dialogue.
Highlights of this compilation include Champion Jack Dupree (recorded under the moniker Lightning Junior) collaborating with The Empires on ‘Somebody Changed The Lock’, The Evergreens’ captivating ‘Guitar Player’, and the timeless classic ‘I’m Sorry’ featuring Bo Diddley and The Teardrops. Established acts like The Ravens with ‘Bye Bye Baby Blues’ further enrich the tapestry of sound, while lesser-known gems like The Marathons’ ‘Talking Trash’ and The Falcons’ ‘Sent Up’ add depth to the collection. Other standout tracks include Little Eddie Mint's ‘Bring Yourself Back Here’, Lee Roy Little's ‘Hurry Baby, Please Come Home’, and The Diablos’ (featuring Nolan Strong) infectious ‘Jump, Shake & Move’.
Filled with treasures from a bygone era, Blues Meets Doo Wop Volume 2 offers listeners a rare glimpse into a chapter of music history seldom explored. Koko Mojo once again leads the way in delivering a unique and nostalgic musical experience, showcasing the enduring allure of blues and doo-wop in equal measure.
