Description
Louis Jordan Knock Me Out
Unissued on LP Vol 2 1940 -1942 Label : Swingtime Released : 1986 Format : Mp3@320  This 1986 LP features sides recorded by Louis and his backing group, The Tympany Five, between September 1940 and October 1942. Louis had left the Chick Webb Orchestra back in 1938 to strike out on his own, forsaking the big band scene for small group swing which was popular in the clubs of Harlem. The recordings on this LP are from the period when Louis' band started to break big, graduating from clubs to ball rooms and theatres and enjoying ever increasing record sales on the major label Decca. "I'm Gonna Move To The Outskirts Of Town" was the B-side of "Knock Me a Kiss" but it was such a big seller that it was promoted to double A-side, and the disc became one of the major hits of 1942. "The Chicks I Pick" and "That'll Just About Knock Me Out" were two more wildly popular releases with jivey vocals and raucous sax breaks that set the pattern for a series of hits which lasted up until the end of the 1940s.
