Koko Mojo Records showcases twenty-eight rousing rhythm & blues rockers with a dash of doo-wop music with the emphasis of jive dancing and added stroll tempos for a stylistic variety on Hi-Strung R&B Volume 08 Oh Yeah. The exhilarating R&B dance-fest sounds are sourced from the years 1949 through to 1962 "Dance kids go crazy" is the message the music carries. - Koko Mojo Records showcases twenty-eight rousing rhythm & blues rockers with a dash of doo-wop music with the emphasis of jive dancing and added stroll tempos for a stylistic variety on Hi-Strung R&B Volume 08 Oh Yeah. The exhilarating R&B dance-fest sounds are sourced from the years 1949 through to 1962 "Dance kids go crazy" is the message the music carries. The eighth album in the series of ten maintains the constant dance rhythm and will provide something unexpected. The album has songs from the lesser-known and the internationally famous performers. The well-known performers include; Little Richard who from his formative years hollers his way through Taxi Blues, LaVern Baker changes Nellie Lutcher's He's a Real Gone from Jazz into R&B, and Chuck Berry's Come On and Larry Williams's Oh Baby are often over-looked but oh so good. The should be well-known names had lack of sales not decreed otherwise are; René Hall's Orchestra featuring Willie Joe (on Unitar) performing the marvellous instrumental Twitchy, and Bill Pinky and The Turks, After The Hop, and these are two must-have recordings. Kitty (Lanier) and Clay (Robbins) duet perfectly during Whoa-Ho (Let's Get Together), and blues legends (Earl) Hooker & (Junior) Wells work perfectly together on Universal Rock. The lesser-known artists who have that rhythm which moves your feet include; Cledus Harrison, Broke, Billy Lamont, I Got A Rock And Roll Gal, Del Thorne and Her Trio, I Let Him Move Me, and Pat Flowers and His Piano Rock Sock The Boogie all of which are Grade A performances. It is guaranteed that there is so much more to discover within the album. Koko Mojo Records endeavours to use some lesser-known and for some people, perhaps more obscure titles, and our philosophy is to compile songs of quality, with every album, it's "killer and no filler" ideology! You are listening to music from the past with a remastered sound that will shake the speakers.
