Delta harmonica man Frank Frost hooked up with longtime friend and drummer Sam Carr (the son of blues legend Robert Nighthawk) and guitarist Big Jack Johnson in 1962 to form a stripped-down blues trio that came to be known as the Nighthawks. Sam Phillips of Sun Records almost immediately whisked them into the recording studio, and the result was a single and an album, Hey Boss Man!, released on the newly created Phillips International imprint. The recordings collected here are those sessions, and they feature a lean, ragged blues approach that adapts the Chicago sound back into a Delta format. The easy, natural roll of songs like "Big Boss Man," "Jelly Roll King" (essentially "Big Boss Man" in new clothes), "Pocket Full of Shells," and the classic, delightful instrumental "Jack's Jump" form the swampy template that the group would follow in their later incarnation as the Jelly Roll Kings. ~ Steve Leggett

Big Boss Man: The Very Best Of Frank Frost. songs
$12.59 
At a time when most of his contemporaries are resting on their laurels, Bobby Rush-a 50-year veteran of the stage-continues to be one of the most exciting and creative artists in the R&B/blues arena. Rush's live shows are without parallel, replete with costume changes and comedic sketches acted out with the assistance of his lovely female dancers. In addressing a broad range of matters of the heart, Rush adopts various onstage persona-the adoring lover, the cuckold, the boastful stud-delivering all with a knowing wink that assures the audience that he's in on the joke. In the context of today's all too predictable and sanitized blues market, it's easy to understand why audiences new to Rush's performances often find them ...

Big Boss Man: The Very Best Of Frank Frost. music CDs
$10.69
After a six-year break, Gary Stewart returned to recording for the Hightone label in Oakland, CA. Other than rocking a bit harder -- courtesy of guitar players Dale Sellers on lead and Allman Brother Warren Haynes on slide -- Stewart is not a shadow of his former self, but himself, period: namely, a bad-assed honky tonk singer/songwriter who delivers drinking songs better than anyone except Merle Haggard. And like the days of yore when albums like Out of Hand, Your Place or Mine, and Gary were released on RCA, Brand New is a collection of bar-slammin' good-time rowdy honky tonk ...
| | Lonnie Mack Memphis Wham! CD (1999)
Big Boss Man: The Very Best Of Frank Frost. songs
$15.05
Contains the Fraternity LP THE WHAM OF THE MEMPHIS MAN (1963) plus 13 rare singles and unreleased tracks.
At first glance, this might seem like nothing more than a retread of the classic The Wham of That Memphis Man, as the disc includes all 14 songs from that album. This is a quality upgrade/supplement to that record, though, adding 11 more tracks of 1963-1967 vintage from both rare singles and previously unreleased outtakes. This is hardly filler that only collectors will care about; it's good stuff, sometimes ace stuff, that's almost all on the same level of The Wham. "Oh, I Apologize," a cover of an obscure Barrett Strong track, is white soul singing on par with Mack's best vocal efforts, while "Cry, Cry, Cry" is a great instrumental version of a Bobby "Blue" Bland number; both of these cuts, unbelievably, were not released prior to this CD. The singles "Say Something Nice to Me" and "Save Your Money" (from 1964 and 1967) are more filet ...
| | Gennett Rarities CD (1998)
Big Boss Man: The Very Best Of Frank Frost. album
$16.79
Recorded in Birmingham, AL and Richmond, IN between July 1927 and October 1929, the performances reissued on this compilation are precious examples of musical entertainments commonly encountered in the Midwest and the Deep South during the years immediately preceding the Great Depression. Based in Richmond, Henry Gennett's Starr Piano Company had begun making records to sell with its phonographs in 1916; for various practical as well as legal reasons, after the end of the First World War the recording division switched to lateral rather than vertical-cut technology, and the label itself was changed from Starr to Gennett. Henry Gennett's youngest son Fred was the individual who suggested the name change. He was also responsible for the ambitious expansion of the company's catalog to include ...
