BIG MAYBELLE - Blues, Candy, And Big Maybelle (Sealed) (LP)

The inimitable Big Maybelle, born, Mabel Louise Smith, had worked for nearly 2 decades in the music business before even releasing her first single, "Gabbin' Blues" in 1952, although, to be fair, she started at the age of 12. The 1958 LP Blues, Candy & Big Maybelle, collects singles from the mid-50s on, including one of her biggest hits, "Candy". Killer jump blues and R&B from one of the finest, Jackson, Tennessee's own Big Maybelle. Reissued on 180 gram LP with download code and 2 bonus tracks.
