Though it began as a country label in 1944, Cincinnati-based King Records gravitated to the blues field shortly thereafter, releasing a wealth of classics in both fields during more than a quarter century’s run as a highly successful independent imprint. Occupying a spacious factory building at 1540 Brewster Avenue that housed offices, a recording studio, and a pressing plant, founder Syd Nathan’s King, Federal and DeLuxe imprints subsequently amassed a vast catalog of postwar black music that resulted in an avalanche of national R&B hits. This collection is the most through overview of this material ever assembled, and will be a delight for blues enthusiasts everywhere. Catalog # 302 066 598 2 Release Date: 09/21/04 TRACK LISTING: 1.
