1962 album by Screamin' Jay Hawkins teaming up with Lillian Briggs. I frequently go to see a local blues musician named Gary Martin play at bars around the city with his band. The guys been around for ever, and is actually the nephew of the great Hubert Sumlin. He told me that once back in the day he got asked to play a gig for this touring guy named Screamin Jay Hawkins, who he had heard nothing about prior to this concert. So he shows up, sets up all his stuff and starts playing when someone rolls a coffin onto stage and Screamin Jay climbs out. Gary says he was so scared by this he packed up his stuff and left right then and there. On the first 5 tracks Screamin Jay takes the lead vocal, Lillian Briggs takes over for the rest.
