Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1956 / Blues / Kansas City Blues / Kansas City

Matrix #: Atlantic 1234

Condition: VG

Cultural Facts:

  1. Scene Ecology Big Joe Turner came out of the Kansas City jump-blues world, where blues, jazz, and boogie blurred together in all-night clubs and territory-band circuits.

  2. Personal Struggle Turner’s career rose and fell with changing tastes; like many early Black performers, he helped build modern popular music without always receiving equal long-term rewards.

  3. Media Narrative By the mid-50s Turner was already being framed as a bridge from prewar blues shouting to rock and roll, making records like this feel both current and historical at once.
