■ Release Notes:
There are several blues musicians who
have performed and recorded as "Guitar
Slim." While Virginia native Alec Seward
was among the first to cop that stage
name, one vibrant and sadly short-lived
"Slim" left in his wake a strongly
influential legacy of great blues records
that contributed mightily to the
development of rock & roll. This
particular Guitar Slim was born Edward
"Eddie" Jones in western Mississippi and
spent a good portion of the 1940s
woodshedding in New Orleans, where he
eventually wigged out and began closely
emulating the sounds and presentational
techniques of Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown.
After establishing himself as a regular
and well-received act at the Dew Drop
Inn, Slim got his first crack at
recording in May of 1951. Four sides
subsequently issued on the Imperial label
affirm the influence of Gatemouth Brown.
Although the act was billed as Eddie
Jones & His Playboys, on his song "New
Arrival" the guitarist, backed by a
rhythm section that included 17-year-old
Huey "Piano" Smith, proudly introduced
himself as "Guitar Slim." Late in 1952
Eddie (Guitar Slim) Jones cut two sides
in Nashville, TN, for the newly founded
J-B record label, a short-lived
enterprise that producer Jim Bulliet
created during a transitional period
between his days as manager of Bullet
Records and subsequent tenure as co-
founder, with Sam Phillips, of the Sun
label. As a J-B recording artist, Slim
was briefly in the same catalog as Vivian
Verson, Jack Dixon, Red Calhoun, and
country vocalist Jimmy Mathis.
Slim's definitive next step was to record
for the Specialty label in New Orleans on
October 27, 1953, backed by a band full
of saxes and trumpet with Ray Charles in
the rhythm section next to premiere R&B
percussionist Oscar Moore. Slim's
influence on the young Ray Charles is
palpable here, and no doubt Screamin' Jay
Hawkins must have listened carefully to
Slim's delivery while paying close
attention to his wild stage antics.
Slim's howling vocal on his theme song,
"Guitar Slim," prefigures the barking of
many subsequent rock & rollers -- Don
Harris and Dewey Terry come immediately
to mind -- and there is no question but
that Guitar Slim had something to do
with the burgeoning popularity of the
electric guitar during the 1950s.
Specialty became his label of choice for
a while, as he cut three more juicy
tracks in Chicago on April 16, 1954, and
six smoking sides in Los Angeles on
September 28, 1954. These dates are
important milestones in an all too brief
career, for by February of 1959 Guitar
Slim was dead of pneumonia at the age of
32. This precious compilation is
essential listening for anyone attempting
to understand the development of R&B,
rock & roll, and subsequent developments
in soul music during the late '50s and
early '60s.
