The material presented on the third volume of the Fabulous label's exhaustive history of the group may come as a surprise to fans, for most of this group's legacy has been tied to RCA/Bluebird reissues since the 1970s. Having enjoyed moderate success as Bluebird recording artists beginning in 1939, the Cats underwent many changes beginning with the death of bassist Chuck Barksdale in 1941. He was replaced by one George Steinbeck. Tiny Grimes left the group in 1942, whereupon his place was taken by Pee Wee Branford. The decisive and dramatic changeup occurred when leader Austin Powell was drafted in 1943. This collection is mainly useful as a sequel to the two previous volumes.
Volume 3 featuring 16 more Doo Wop greats. Acrobat.

Volume two in the detailed history of the Cats & the Fiddle as presented by Fabulous in 2003 contains 16 Bluebird recordings dating from July 1940 through October 1941. This entertaining little string band, a logical extension of Leo Scat Watson & the Spirits of Rhythm, specialized in vocal harmony and worked with a repertoire that ranged from sentimental ballads to zoot suit swing and scat-propelled jive routines. Their approach also echoed what and Slim Gaillard and Slam Stewart achieved in 1938. Led by guitarist Austin Powell, the group heard on tracks one through five featured Ernie Price who plucked a small guitar known as a tipple (the Latin American term, "tiple," is pronounced "tee-play"); and guitarist Herbie Miles, who replaced the deceased Jimmy Henderson in 1940. The "fiddle" was Chuck Barksdale's upright bass. Beginning with track six, Miles is replaced by Tiny Grimes, a Charlie Christian disciple who played electrically amplified guitar and piano. The lively "Hep Cat's Holiday" introduces a hitherto unknown ...

Few would dispute that this collection is the Holy Grail of blues harmonica. Like the other entries in Chess Records' HIS BEST series, the Little Walter compilation is beautifully selected, sequenced, remastered, and packaged. At 20 tracks, HIS BEST gives a satisfying, economical summary of Walter's genius, and defends his title as the king of blues harp men. As a member of Muddy Waters's band, and on his own, Walter was one of the architects of the original Chicago sound. His propulsive chording, high-leaning notes, inventive use of amplification (he used a close-up hand-held ...
