Big Joe Turner, Rhythm & Blues Years, 1986 on Atlantic
Although this compilation was put out by Atlantic in 1986 (Turner died in late 1985), the recordings come from the 1950s. Turner met the Erteguns at the Apollo Theater in 1951 and made five albums plus many singles and EPs on Atlantic during those years.
Great 2xLP with a gatefold and liner notes including contributions by Ahmet and Nesuhi Ertegun, Bob Porter, Jerry Wexler, Doc Pomus, and Herb Abramson. As the liner notes point out “these are not Joe’s biggest recordings, but they are some of his best performances” – they reissued the biggest hits on another compilation.

This magic moment
So different and so new
Was like any other
Until I kissed you
And then it happened
It took me by surprise
I knew that you felt it too
By the look in your eyes
Sweeter than wine
Softer than the summer night
Everything I want I have
Whenever I hold you tight
This magic moment
While your lips are close to mine
Will last forever
Forever till the end of time

You can dance
Every dance with the guy
Who gives you the eye
Let him hold you tight
You can smile
Every smile for the man
Who held your hand
'Neath the pale moonlight
But don't forget
who's taking you home
And in whose arms
you're gonna be
So darlin'
Save the last dance for me
mmm
Oh I know
That the music's fine
Like sparkling wine
Go and have your fun
Laugh & sing
But while we're apart
Don't give your heart
To anyone

Little Sister don't you
💋 me once or twice
Then say it's very nice
& then you 🏃🏻♀️
Little Sister don't you do
what your big sister done
Well I dated your big sister
& took her to a show
I went for some 🍬
Along came Jim Dandy &
they snuck right out of the 🚪Ev'ry time I see your sister
Well she's got somebody new
She's mean and she's evil
Like that old Boll Weevil
Guess I'll try my luck with you
