What the Critics Say
Louis Jordan's use of uptempo jump shuffle rhythms and his jivin' persona and loose, almost calypso approach created a template for R&B and eventually for rock & roll and even hip-hop, and his boundless good energy informed jazz, as well. This two-disc, 44-rack collection hits the essential high points of Jordan's career, and while it may be a bit too much for the casual listener, more serious listeners will find it just about right. ~ Steve Leggett, All Music Guide
