Oscar TV Slim Wills - Flatfoot Sam Man - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Although Oscar InchT.V. SlimInch Wills was never a full-time musician he recorded prolifically, usually for his own record tag, Speed, creating a highly entertaining body of work that showed him to be a tough guitarist and a witty lyricist, with a sharp eye for detail. His original records, many of which were only pressed in limited numbers, have been serious collectors' items for decades. He remains best known for 'Flatfoot Sam', a 1957 hit which has been reissued on countless Blues, R&B, R&R and/or Rockabilly compilations. Being the first comprehensive collection of T.V. Slim's recordings, these sides are as rare as unicorns' manure, a great number of them having never previously appeared in the digital . This is a remarkable body of work; who knows, it may even help elevate Slim from his InchGreat UnknownsInch status. Album Tracks 1. The Fight (Version #1) 2. Darling Remember (Version #1) 3.
