• TEN FAVE UNRELEASED TRACKS FROM....1954

    From Roger@21:1/5 to All on Sun Jul 7 05:01:14 2024
    Ten fave unreleased tracks chosen from my yearly Favorites lists

    Today………from 1954

    THE DIABLOS – MY KIND OF LOVIN’ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TzjUurPO54Q

    Devora’s best boys blown here by “The Wind” straight from the street corners of Detroit with a memorable jump number “My Kind Of Lovin’”
    first recorded in 1954 for Fortune Records but which was sadly
    overlooked for release at the time.

    First released on the LP “Daddy Rock : The Legendary Nolan Strong With
    The Diablos” LP on Fortune in 1984

    See here for more info on this album https://www.lexjansen.com/fortune/diablos.htm

    “My Kind Of Lovin’” ranked #62 most successful entrant in the 2014 Unreleased Battle

    THE DRIFTERS – THREE THIRTY THREE
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vhw0T0VhywU

    Private Clyde McPhatter’s last session with the Drifters (whilst on
    leave) on October 24 1954 featured him (ld ten vcl),Gerhart Thrasher
    (ten vcl) Andrew Thrasher (bar vcl) Bill Pinkney (bs vcl) and produced
    said “Three Thirty Three” (that went unissued until 1971) plus “Everyone’s Laughing”,”Sugar Coated Kisses” and “Hot Zigetty”

    In depth look at the early Clyde & The Drifters career by the ever
    reliable Unca Marvy
    https://www.uncamarvy.com/Drifters/drifters.html

    First released on LP “Their Greatest Recordings : The Early Years”
    (Atco) in 1971

    This was #2 most successful track in the Unreleased Battle

    THE FIVE KEYS – TEETH AND TONGUE WILL GET YOU HUNG https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kazUfai-Ujg

    From the notorious July 1 1954 session that the guys did for RCA’s
    Groove subsid that caused a big problem-since The Five Keys were still
    legally signed to the Aladdin label. Four tracks were recorded
    that day including the proposed single “I’ll Follow You”/”Lawdy Miss Mary” which were all shelved
    when the problem became apparent (thus opening the door for Capitol to
    woo the boys into their arms)

    The other two tracks recorded for Groove were buried in the
    vaults---“When Will My Troubles End” and the track in question
    here---the Leroy Kirkland penned “Teeth And Tongue Will Get You Hung” on which (as with the other Groove tracks) the lead is taken by Maryland
    Pierce

    Much more detailed writeup on the Keys here by---you guessed it---Unca
    Marvy of course
    https://www.uncamarvy.com/5Keys/5keys.html

    This track was rated #84 in the list of entrants in the Unreleased
    Battle

    GUITAR SLIM – GUITAR SLIM
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-eD-yqch5s

    Not to be confused with the several other artists with “Guitar Slim” in their moniker this is Eddie
    “Guitar Slim” Jones of that ilk we are talking about here. The guy that topped the US R&B charts in 1954
    with his classic “The Things I Used To Do”. And who cut several other classic sides since (and before!)
    including the title in contention here---"Guitar Slim” cut for Specialty
    in 1954 but that sadly went
    unreleased at the time (until rescued in 1970 on the Specialty LP “The Things I Used To Do”)

    This one by Slim came in at #15 in the most successful entrants chart in
    the Unreleased Battle

    THE HAWKS – HE’S THE FAT MAN
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJQLIYqr2XQ

    One of the better vocal groups to come out of New Orleans The Hawks had somewhat of a checkered history being a composite of two original
    groups. On April 13 1954 when this song was recorded the Hawks comprised
    Allen Matthews (aka “Fats” Matthews or Fat Man Matthews) (the lead here),Willie Thrower,Joe Gaines,Albert Veal and Buddy Morris.

    “He’s The Fat Man” was finally released on the LP “Rhythm & Blues Vol.1 : The End Of An Era” on Imperial LM-94003 (Legendary Masters series) in
    1968

    In depth look at The Hawks by Marv Goldberg https://www.uncamarvy.com/Hawks/hawks.html

    This was #23 most successful track in the Unreleased Battle

    JIMMY McCRACKLIN – NIGHT AND DAY

    Anyone expecting the crooning “Night and day you are the one…..” famous old Cole Porter number is going to be sorely disappointed---no,that’s
    not the word---I mean DELIGHTED..by this solid r&b jumper that Jimmy &
    the band recorded for Modern back in 1954. Sadly this one slipped
    through the net when new releases were being considered and lay in the
    vaults for decades until its appearance on “The Chronological Jimmy McCracklin 1951-1954” Classics set in 2007

    Incredibly this only rated #259 in the Unreleased Battle

    It crashed out in Round One as seen below :-

    6 Jimmy McCracklin -- Night And Day -- Modern -- 1954
    6 Roy Hall -- Move On -- Decca -- 1955

    Draw #1 and since I voted McCracklin........

    THE PELICANS – DOWN IN MEXICO
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Edhe5jZ4lI

    Comprising Walter Lewis,Willie Hannah,Carl Leadbetter and Walter Brown
    this group from New Orleans-besides cutting their own material for
    Imperial also “moonlighted” as The Kidds on Post and Imperial (“Drunk Drunk Drunk” is particularly memorable)

    ALL their material---both Pelicans and Kidds----came from the same
    recording session---their ONLY one---recorded by The Pelicans in Los
    Angeles on August 20 1954

    “Down In Mexico” was released on the LP “Rhythm & Blues Vol.2 : Sweet & Greasy” on Imperial LM-94005 (Legendary Masters series) in 1968

    This one came in at #38 in the Unreleased Battle

    CARL PERKINS – HONKY TONK BABE
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kWtMv09s1Gw

    The very first track ever laid down by Carl Perkins at Sun Studios in
    Memphis. That session took place 10th October 1954 ft. Carl Perkins
    (vcl,gtr) Jay B. Perkins (gtr) Clayton Perkins (bs) W.S. Holland (dms).

    First released on the Bear Family set “Classics” in March 1990

    This was #34 most successful track in the Unreleased Battle

    ELVIS PRESLEY – TOMORROW NIGHT
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K03mPoQKNxw

    Recorded September 10 1954 (7 takes) at Sun Studios,Memphis Elvis awards
    the memorable song--made famous
    by Lonnie Johnson--the similar sparse but striking treatment also given
    to his “Blue Moon”. Backing here is Scotty Moore (gtr) and Bill Black
    (bs)

    First released in 1965 on the RCA “Elvis For Everyone” album (but this
    is an overdubbed version with the Anita Kerr Singers etc). The track as recorded appears on “The Complete Sun Sessions” set in 1987

    And no, Lonnie Johnson WASN’T the original version of the song.

    From 1939 this one was first

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UVLhN2YjBJQ

    THE SPIDERS - LOVE’S ALL I’M PUTTIN’ DOWN https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ziYf7Vs-X_k

    Just about my favorite of the bunch of unreleased gems listed in this
    post this classic (with Leonard
    Carbo lead) was recorded for Imperial March 11 1954. It really should
    have appeared on the belated
    Spiders LP that Imperial released in 1961 but it was not to be.Instead
    this great track had to wait until
    1992 to see light of day on “The Imperial Sessions” collection released
    by Bear Family

    This was #5 most successful tracks in the Unreleased Battle

    THE DIABLOS – MY KIND OF LOVIN’ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TzjUurPO54Q

    “My Kind Of Lovin’” ranked #62 most successful entrant in the 2014 Unreleased Battle

    It did well, and deservedly so. I have it as a 7 and #390 on my 1954
    list which is currently at 527 songs.

    THE DRIFTERS – THREE THIRTY THREE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vhw0T0VhywU

    This was #2 most successful track in the Unreleased Battle

    Strong run finishing behind only "Put Your Cat Clothes On." Don't get
    why they did not release it. I have it as a low 9 and at #116 on my 1954
    list.

    THE FIVE KEYS – TEETH AND TONGUE WILL GET YOU HUNG https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kazUfai-Ujg

    I was not aware of this version. I like the King version. This one is
    good too. Pierce's lead is great, but I don't like the background vocal arrangement. Other than Pierce's voice it does not sound at all like a 5
    Keys record. Why are they fucking singing over a sax break that sounds
    like it would be stellar if you could hear it without the voices. It
    could have been great, but instead it's a mess that will only get a 6.

    This track was rated #84 in the list of entrants in the Unreleased
    Battle

    I must have thought that the King version was the one in the contest and
    that it was unissued.

    GUITAR SLIM – GUITAR SLIM
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-eD-yqch5s

    Now we are talking major TEN category here. I have it #18 for the year
    and at #113 all time.

    This one by Slim came in at #15 in the most successful entrants chart in
    the Unreleased Battle

    Glad to hear it.

    THE HAWKS – HE’S THE FAT MAN
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJQLIYqr2XQ

    I have an 8 on this and it's at #259 for the year. Wasn't Dave
    Bartholomew also a member of the group? At least some of the time. He
    sings on some songs that are just credited to the Hawks.

    JIMMY McCRACKLIN – NIGHT AND DAY

    My affection for Jimmy Mack is no secret, and this one is a 9 and checks
    in at #69 for the year.

    THE PELICANS – DOWN IN MEXICO
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Edhe5jZ4lI

    Another great one, a 10, and part of a trio of great records with the
    same title that are all different songs. I list it as by the Kidds,
    that's what it said on the 45 I had. But I have it as #31 for 1955. The
    video below also says 1955.

    ELVIS PRESLEY – TOMORROW NIGHT
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K03mPoQKNxw

    I have a 7 on this, but Lonnie's version is better. There is something
    magical about it IMO. The Elvis is #352 for the year.

    THE SPIDERS - LOVE’S ALL I’M PUTTIN’ DOWN https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ziYf7Vs-X_k

    I was starting to think this did not make the list!

    Another killer 10, and just about the best record the Spiders ever made.
    How the FUCK this was not released I will never understand. I have it
    #21 for the year.

    This may be the best year for unreleased stuff. I'm gonna see what I can
    come up with that you did not use.

  • From Bruce@21:1/5 to All on Sun Jul 7 07:07:50 2024
    Okay, here's what I came up with:

    The Ice Man - Dave Bartholomew

    I can't fucking believe this is not on Youtube. I'm counting on Larry to
    remedy that. When Diane and I spoke to him I asked him if he could do
    this song, but he explained that at Preservation Hall he doesn't do that
    kind of stuff, just traditional jazz.

    Travelin' On ¦ Sticks McGhee
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=joRbWAQzRec

    Sticks made one record for Savoy, but this was an unissued track from
    that session. The session details only mention the 2 released sides, but
    it must be from that same day. Bubba Brooks, tenor sax; Fletcher Smith,
    piano; Sticks McGhee, guitar, vocal; Prince Babbs, bass; Irving Brown,
    drums.

    Mellow As A Man Can Be ¦ Hollywood Flames https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=06-MDWtsH_Q

    Mellow Mama ¦ Spiders
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9KK_AqMEgLg

    Another Leonard "Chick" Carbo lead. Unfortunately the tape seems to have
    had some kind of a glitch during the intro where it slows down for half
    a second.

    Yes I had the repro 45 too as by "The Kidds" on Post---of course it may
    have been intended for release on that label but it wasn't gonna be Post
    2010 (as it says on the repro) since the real Post 2010 was a Clifton
    Chenier release

    The sole real Pelicans 45 was released in October 1954 and I've read
    several times that ALL their material (Pelicans and Kidds) came from
    that solitary August 1954 session for Imperial
