#doowop is een muziekgenre welke u regelmatig hoort tijdens de uitzendingen van https://delfshavenradio.nl
Doowop is een vorm van #rhythmandblues die gekenmerkt wordt door a capella met een pakkende melodische lijn en een eenvoudige beat met weinig of geen instrumentatie. De stijl ontstond onder de Afro-Amerikaanse jeugd in de steden in het noordoosten van de Verenigde Staten en kende zijn hoogtepunt in de jaren 50s

"Rescue Me" is a #rhythmAndBlues song first recorded and released as a single by American #soul singer-songwriter #FontellaBass in 1965. The original versions of the record, and #BMI, give the songwriting credit to Raynard Miner and Carl William Smith, although many other sources also credit Bass herself as a co-writer. It would prove the biggest hit of Bass's career, reaching #1 on the R&B charts for four weeks and placing at #4 on the #BillboardHot100.

This Ruth Brown's minor hit from 1959 deals with a somewhat similar character:
Ruth Brown: Jack O'Diamonds (1959)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KKzGf36h02MI didn't know that Leiber and Stoller had written the song already in 1954. The original ballad version by Jacki Fontaine is unfortunately nowhere near as good as Ruth Brown's later take:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zCLOHabgB6c
#TuneTuesday #GemsAndJewels #RuthBrown #JerryLeiber #MikeStoller #KingCurtis #JackiFontaine #rhythmandblues

While it's a different kind of song, the top side of Roy Brown's previous single also fits today's #TuneTuesday theme, #GemsAndJewels, quite nicely:
Roy Brown: Black Diamond (1954)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r85V2S5vS9o"Well Black Diamond is dead
he was killed, you see
And everybody wants to blame it on me
I was swinging my razor
His throat got in the way
He fell on the ground
They buried him the other day" -
Although not a hit at the time, this slow blues song was one of Roy Brown's greatest performances:
Roy Brown: Queen of Diamonds (1954)

Heard this one blasting from the car next to me at the gas station this morning. IMHO "More Bounce to the Ounce" should be the anthem for #Dayton #Ohio. That city cranked out more funkateers-per-capita than just about any other. Woof! 🎶 🎵 🐶 👍 😁 #Music #Funk #RhythmAndBlues #Zapp https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_IPV2zeDIc

Producer + engineer #DavidRivkin passed last month. If you've heard Lipps Inc's "Funkytown" or Prince's "Kiss" then you've heard his work. He was always low-key, behind the scenes, never interested in the spotlight. But IMHO his contribution to the sound of modern music is significant.

This week's #TuneTuesday theme is #waitingsongs. There was a similar #JukeboxFridayNight theme, #waiting, a few weeks ago, but of course, there's no shortage of suitable songs:
Big Maybelle: I Can't Wait Any Longer (1967)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V-CxuabfF1QI recently read an old article written by the legendary songwriter Doc Pomus in the 1980s. In the article he shares some of his recollections from Cookie's Caravan, a Newark club that was popular in the 1950s:
"The best female singer and entertainer who ever appeared at the club was Big Maybelle. She was huge and ungainly and ebony black. Most of her broken-hearted love songs were directed at mean young girls who usually got off turning Maybelle inside out. It was only on rare occasions that she decided to change her luck and let a man do her in. She was a classic victim and this was convoluted by a heavy occupation with drugs. She could sing any kind of song from the most complicated modern jazz ballad to the funkiest low-down, nasty blues. She could take a note and bend it and torture it any which way. She could sing from the highest top to the lowest bottom with most powerful set of chops you ever heard. They were surrounded by constant sob in her voice and the result was a rare soul food musical gumbo.
She only used mike for effect or a pause. Most of the time, she walked up and down the room real slow, singing and signifying all the time. Once in a while, she'd stop for a minute at a table. Then she would carry on some more and move on again, never quitting for a moment.
Maybelle's voice was so powerful that you never missed the lack of speaker amplification. If she saw a woman she knew romantically or wanted to know romantically, she'd get real close, stare deep in her eyes and sing to her till you swore that if the little girl was the Rock of Gibraltar, she would still be moved."
(Doc Pomus: Cookie's Caravan. "Whiskey, Women, and...", Number 16, Spring 1987.)

Many of the mid-sixties Bobby Bland records had great #brass arrangements by his band leader, Joe Scott. This was one of the best:

"I Almost Lost My Mind" is a #popular song written by #IvoryJoeHunter and published in 1950. Hunter's recording of the song was a number one hit on the #US #Billboard #RAndBSinglesChart in that year.
