• Korea: Sherman "Blues" Johnson & His Clouds Of Joy - 1953

    From RWC@21:1/5 to All on Sun May 5 12:30:00 2024
    a lament by a cold and lonely soldier, far away in Korea

    vocal is in the style of traditional blues
    accompanied by impressive contemporary instrumentation
    subject apart, the overall sound is appealingly cruisy

    Recorded at Sun Recording Studio, Memphis, on Sep 30, 1952.

    (uniquely it has background sounds of munitions being fired)

    I decided to create a YT link for this song because existing links
    had significant shellac surface noise.
