Synopsis

Album Description
Another fascinating collection of half-century old nuggets from the indefatigable doyen of selection compilers, Roy Carr. This one, subtitled "The Ultimate Chill-Out" documents West Coast Blues and R & B. Carr, in a characteristically informative liner note, traces the phenomenon to the rapid expansion of the US defence industry, and points out that one of this compilation's standout tracks, Cecil Gant's charmingly laconic "I Wonder" was responsible for kick-starting the commercial viability of the genre by selling over a million copies in 1945.
