The set covers the first fifteen years of his extensive recording career, cutting off at 1960, right at the end of his second hit-making spell as a bandleader, club-owner, dee-jay, vocalist, talent scout and record producer. To say Johnny had done it all is rather an understatement! From his early immediate post-war period, which found Johnny leading a full-scale orchestra and emulating his jazz heroes such as Count Basie (even borrowing Basie’s noted vocalist, Jimmy Rushing, on one session), through his hugely successful period as r&b bandleader with Savoy Records, during which he recorded with his many discoveries, either as bandleader, producer or both, through his work at Peacock and Federal, to his most commercial period for Capitol in the mid-late 1950s. The list of talent that came his way, often via the talent show that he ran at his Barrel House club in Los Angeles, or people that he discovered while out on the road, was extensive. Highlights are many, far too many to be justifiably covered here. Reading through the people whom Johnny has been involved with reads like a who’s who of r&b: Illinois Jacquet, Wynonie Harris, Charles Brown, Joe Turner, Lester Young, The Robins, Little Esther Phillips, The Dominoes, Big Mama Thornton, Little Richard and Etta James to name but a few. Many more than that crossed his path over the years. The opening track, Illinois Jacquet’s ‘Uptown Boogie’, is a perfect example of the sound that Johnny was into in the mid-1940s. Here he is on drums along with Henry Coker on trombone, Arthur Dennis on baritone, Sir Charles Thompson on piano, Ulysses Livingstone on guitar, Billy Hadnott on bass and the Jacquet brothers, Russell and Illinois, on trumpet and tenor respectively, making the wonderful small combo swinging jazz that was beginning to flourish in the post big-band era. The young Johnny must have thought he’d made it to heaven playing in such illustrious company whilst barely out of his teens! Further jazzy sessions followed, then came his first big success under his own name, his haunting version of ‘Harlem Nocturne’. But it wasn’t long before he turned to r&b, in the process getting the moniker, ‘Godfather Of Rhythm & Blues’; an apt title. 1947’s ‘Midnight In The Barrelhouse’, with the great Pete Lewis on devastating guitar, was the first of many r&b classics such as ‘Double Crossing Blues’, ‘Beer Bottle Boogie’, ‘Mistrustin’ Blues’, ‘Cupid’s Boogie’ and others. Johnny wasn’t afraid to inject a little humour into his work: listen to ‘Court Room Blues’ or ‘Wedding Boogie’ to hear some great self-parodying playlets! Further classics include ‘Call Operator 210’ with Mel Walker, ‘Goomp Blues’ with the great Ben Webster vying for the honours with Pete Lewis, whilst Johnny himself perfectly underscores things on vibes on this great rocking track. ‘The Deacon Moves In’ is another great recording that finds Little Esther and The Dominoes rocking together on this r&b classic. ‘Hound Dog’ was another groundbreaking recording that saw further success when covered by a certain Mr. P. Here we have the Otis rhythm section laying down a great down-home blues beat behind Big Mama’s tough vocal. I could single out further tracks, but I’ll vouch that there are no turkeys here; all are classic in one way or the other. The 83 cuts on this set only represent around a fifth of his releases in the fifteen year period covered. If ever an artist warranted a Bear Family-style box set (or series of boxes), it was Otis. Until that happens, this triple will do nicely. Tony Watson.

    Boom Boom Boom Boom by Steven Gowin “You only just watch them damned cowboy shows and drink that cheap beer,” Lydia crabbed at Little Jessie. “Whyn't ya get out and do sumpin'? See a show that ain't Rawhide. Make a friend; don't be a worm no more.” Little Jessie'd spent 30 years taking orders in the Canal Zone with only brief visits home. He'd seen a fellow gamble away his life's savings, survived a near fatal explosion, and witnessed a man crushed and drowned in the Miraflores locks. “You like guitar?” Lydia badgered Jessie, when all he really wanted was a cold PBR, Gunsmoke, and some peace. “I said, guitar what you like?” Jessie nodded and said, “Sure enough, and squeeze box and saxophone, why?” “Why??? Why is cause I ain't standin' another night of you and them cowboys.” Lydia was one of those ladies who wears a big hat to church on Sunday, every Sunday. She said, “I know you know I'm right.” Jessie didn't care about right. He only cared about meanness and bossing and lack thereof. But Lydia was worse and worse. He couldn't do anything, say anything, without her telling him what was wrong with him. The next evening, holding the ticket Lydia'd bought him in hand, Jessie rode the 22 Fillmore across town to where the marquee flashed, John Lee's Boom BOOM R O O M ! ! ! The red and blue neon cheered Jessie, he admitted, and he liked the folks headed in wearing furs and finery and jewels.
