The lovely Annisteen Allen was discovered by the legendary Louis Jordan, who recommended her to Lucky Millinder, then on the lookout for a top notch, sexy female vocalist. She went solo in the early 1950s after scoring mega national chart hits with Lucky's band, included on Lucky Millinder 'Let It Roll Again!' (CRBAND7), and made some superb R&B sides to rival those of Laverne Baker and Ruth Brown at Atlantic (she was a much better singer than either allegedly!).Annisteen had perhaps her biggest and most notorious hit in 1953 with "Baby, I'm Doin' It!" - a saucy answer to the 5 Royales' chart-topper "Baby, Don't Do It!". Her most famous song is undoubtedly the explosive "Fujiyama Mama" which Wanda Jackson turned into a rockabilly classic in 1957. Chock full of rock 'n' roll club hits, great jump blues, and madly popular with the new swing dance craze, how can you go wrong with is first ever CD collection? |
