Part of popular In Session series, this new release can also be seen as the companion to an earlier Don’t You Just Know It - The Very Best Of Huey Piano Smith & The Clowns. This 30 track collection concentrates on Huey’s work as a session player. Long before recording under his own name, he backed artists like Eddie Guitar Slim Jones, Little Richard, Earl King and Smiley Lewis. After forming The Clowns and commencing his own recording career in 1956, he also continued working as a session musician, notably backing Junior Gordon, Roland Cook, Jesse Allen, Benny Spellman, Bobby Marchan, Charles Brown, Amos Milburn, Jesse Thomas, Peg Leg Martin and Curley Moore, all featured here. Also included is Huey & Gerri Hall’s original recording of Sea Cruise, before the record company famously wiped their vocal and overdubbed Frankie Ford.
