Born in Mississippi in 1932, Herman InchJuniorInch Parker moved with his family to Memphis in the '40s and grew up surrounded by the blues, learning harmonica and being mentored by the great Sonny Boy Williamson. He toured with Howlin' Wolf and then with B.B. King and Bobby Bland in The Beale Streeters before forming The Blue Flames, and being spotted by Ike Turner, who recorded him for Modern Records. He signed to Sam Phillips' Sun Records, before moving to the Duke tag. He had developed what one critic called a Inchhoneyed, velvet-smoothInch voice, and as another writer said, Inchdeserted downhome harmonica blues for uptown blues-soul musicInch, having ten R&B and pop hits during the '50s and into the 1960s. This 50-track 2-CD set comprises all the A & B sides he released on the Modern, Sun and Duke labels in this era, and naturally features all his hits during this key first decade of his career, when he had all his Top 20 hits. It features the Top 10 R&B entries InchFeelin' GoodInch, InchNext Time You See MeInch, InchIn The DarkInch, InchDriving WheelInch and InchAnnie Get Yout Yo-YoInch. It also includes his original version of InchMystery TrainInch, recorded for Sun, which Elvis Presley recorded a couple of years later. It's a fine showcase for an artist who has not generally had the attention which he merits and who was a fine songwriter, as well as a top-class and distinctive blues stylist.
