Professor Longhair, along with the usual lineup of stellar New Orleans session players, starts things going on Backbeat this week. Pretty hard to beat that but we'll try. How about Slim Gaillard, Wayne Raney, The Golden Gate Quartet, Patsy Cline, Aretha Franklin, under-appreciated jazz/blues singer Lil Green, plus the original R&B version of an early Rolling Stones classic and an early, and good, attempt to replace Little Richard.
