This CD brings you - for the first time on one CD - the recordings that Joe made in the first five years of his career, for KING and the American ACE label. Here are 27 cuts that embrace New York rock 'n' roll and New Orleans R&B that point the way to the great soul singer that Joe would become in the 60s. As well as some great music on the disc, the CD booklet contains several previously-unpublished photographs from Joe's first ever recording session in September 1955. Much of the humor of many of his later hits has its origins in these recordings. It's very easy to see and hear from these great tracks that Joe was eventually going to be a star when the time was right................ KING RECORDINGS: 1. Davy You Upset My Home 2.
