Jimmy Yancey - Blues And Boogie mp3 album

To clear up any possible cause of confusion: although the front cover of this reissue reproduces the front sleeve of Jimmy Yancey's original Blues and Boogie LP, this CD actually combines two albums by two separate artists. One is Yancey's Blues and Boogie; the other is the less famous Freddie Mitchell's Boogie Bash (the spine and back cover do make it clear that the disc contains both of these records, with the booklet reproducing the front cover of Boogie Bash for good measure).

The album was released in the . in 1971 by RCA Records, and re-released in 1977 by Pickwick Records. It was compiled by Richard Robinson and originally included a piece by rock critic Richard Meltzer on the back cover
