Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
With 20 originals from Louis Jordan's '40s and early '50s heyday at Decca Records, Best Of is the definitive collection of the blues-jazz bandleader-singer's work. Most of the cuts are up-tempo jumpers with lyrics that tell sly tales of the black experience in midcentury: the house-partiers in "Saturday Night Fish Fry" end up in the slam, while the institution of marriage occasions a warning in "Beware." Jordan also dabbled in Latin and Brazilian rhythms on "Run Joe" and "Early in the Morning," and even added a major ballad, "Don't Let the Sun Catch You Cryin'," to the standard repertoire. A major influence on Ray Charles, James Brown, and Chuck Berry, Jordan is a must-hear. --Rickey Wright

The CD doesn't include, "Is you is or is you ain't". An essensial Louis Jordan song.

JORDANISM (jor-den-ism) adj. Joyful and happy music predating rock and roll, Rhythm and Blues, and Rap, created by one super-lunatic madman supreme of jazz comedy and sultan of saxophone named Louis Thomas Jordan (1908-1975) accompanied varying musical aggregations collectively known as the Tympani Five. Guaranteed to induce tapping of toes, jitterbug dancing, intense laughter accompanied by the slapping of one's knees and/or pounding of the floors, and general good feelings overall.

Fantastic. Anyone deciding whether or not to buy this- just do it. As good as the best of Cab Calloway or Bill Haley, etc.
Rating: -
This collection truly gives insight into the beginnings of Rock 'N Roll. Sassy, big grooves, rockin' and swingin'. Great sax solos. A must-have for a true collection.
Rating: -
No wonder he influenced a lot of musicians; Ray Charles, James Brown, Little Richard and many more. Not only is the man a excellent musician, he's also an excellent entertainer. His music is rocking and has a story line.
