Product Description
CD Description
* The third instalment of Ace's five volume overview of the great blues, R&B and rock'n'roll recordings of Ace Records of Jackson, Mississippi.
* This package contains all 16 of the tracks that were included on the vinyl version from 1982 and is augmented/enhanced by eight other scorchers of similar vintage and equally high quality.
* Virtually all of US Ace's best-known and best-loved artists are featured - some more than once - in audio quality that improves significantly on any previous CD releases of the materiel.
* As ever, the booklet has comprehensive notes illustrated with a wealth of label shots and other ephemera to complement a rockin' good hour and a bit's worth of great American music from the mid-late 50s through to the early 60s.
* Most of the tracks are currently unavailable anywhere else.

Obscurities and more
4 July 2011
A couple of issues ago, we reviewed the first two volumes in this important series, both of which had a New Orleans rock 'n' roll slant. This one does too, but it also includes some pretty tough blues sides as lagniappe.
Include Jerry McCain's often-covered "She's Tough" in the latter column, as well as his blistering instrumental "Steady." Two other blues sides here that will raise the hair on back of your neck are Mercy Baby's "Marked Deck" and "Rock and Roll Baby." Sonny Boy Williamson's "Boppin' with Sonny" and Frankie Lee Sims' "What Will Lucy Do" completes a stellar inclusion of classic blues.
Lots of familiar New Orleans names are in the mix here, including Huey "Piano" Smith, Bobby Marchan, Earl King, Frankie Ford, Mac Rebennack and Red Tyler. Of particular special interest is the inclusion of the Marchan/Smith collaboration "Loberta," which was eventually transformed into the flipside of Frankie Ford's hit "Sea Cruise"--albeit renamed "Roberta." So too is Earl King's "Darlin' Honey Angel Child," a primitive version of his frequently- covered hit, "Come On."
Several obscurities are included as well. The Emeralds' "I Kneel at Your Throne" and the Supremes' (not the Diana Ross group) "Don't Leave Me Here to Cry" have long been revered by doo-wop collectors, and this album shows the reasons why.
Superb sound quality, copious and informative notes, plus vintage photos and label pics makes this one to look out for--particularly if you enjoyed the first two volume.--Jeff Hannusch, OffBeat Magazine, July 2011 issue.
