He was a highly convincing blues shouter, but he also was adept at performing smooth R&B ballads, which enabled his writing and recording to range across the different styles during what was a dynamic era in popular music. After making his recording debut for Columbia in 1951, he moved across to their Okeh label, and had Top 5 R&B hits with My Story, Going To The River, Youre Still My Baby, before moving to Atlantic in 1956 to score more hits with Its Too Late, C.C. Rider and R&B No. 1, and his sadly ironic valedictory No. 1 with What Am I Living For in 1958. Along the way, he wrote hits for other artists like Oh What A Dream for Ruth Brown. This great value 57-track 2-CD set comprises the A and B sides of all his singles, plus some bonus LP tracks. As such, it represents a comprehensive overview of his chart-focused recording activity, and is an excellent showcase for his distinctive talent.
