Narvel “Cadillac Baby” Eatmon
If you’re a fan of vintage blues and R&B, gather ‘round and check out this 4 disc set that brings to you a fresh full rack of smothered juke joint sounds from Chicago.
During the 50s and 60s, labels like Chess, Vee-Jay and Brunswick had competition from an indie label Bea & Baby Records, created by the impresario Narvel “Cadillac Baby” Eatmon. The 101 songs on this boxed set, complete with an amazing collection of historical notes, is a discovered gold cache of a previously obscured mine. Get a pick and dig in!!!
