Jesse Allen- Rockin' & Rollin' In New Orleans 1951-1958
Jesse Allen- Rockin' & Rollin' In New Orleans 1951-1958

Jesse Allen remains one of New Orleans' "Great Unknowns", and his entire recording career is believed to be encapsulated in the twenty tracks featured on this set. Yet the quality of these sides is so impressive that you can't help wondering (a) why he didn't register hits, and (b) how come he didn't cut more records. In particular, powerful discs like 'Rockin' and Rollin' and 'Love You Baby' b/w 'After A While' have become highly-touted collectors' items. For many years very little was known about Allen - even from where he'd originated - and the various written articles and sleevenotes about him were largely conjecture. But in the Internet era his daughter contacted the bebopwino. Blogspot. com website, after they'd done a track-by-track analysis of a collectors' LP, and was able to correct several factoids and fill in some of the gaps.

Track List

  1. Shake 'Em Up Baby
  2. Rock This Morning
  3. Gonna Move Away from Town
  4. Boogie Woogie Mama
  5. My Suffering
  6. Let's Party
  7. Dragnet
  8. Take It Easy
  9. Gotta Call That Number
  10. I'm Gonna Tell My Mama

  14. What a Party
  15. Rockin' and Rollin'
  16. I Love You So

Open My Records To Avoid Seam Splitting During Shipping

In order to ship your records to you in the safest way possible, and to avoid seam splits, we recommend removing the record from the jacket when shipping. That said, we will never open sealed records and do this without your permission. If you would like your records shipped to you this way, please add this product to your cart.

We will place your jacket and record inside a FREE protective poly.
