A very good friend of mine sent me this early this morning.

"just discovered earl gaines via WFMU out of east orange NJ"

I loved his 24 Hours track on YouTube.

I'd love to hear, "I Just Kissed My Last Ass"....My new Fave title of the Month.

Is anyone here familiar with his work?

Have lots of his 50s, 60s, 70s stuff. Not too big a fan of the later "chitlin circuit" material.

I like his '50s and early '60s recordings.

2 CDs, Lovin Blues and 24 Hours A Day cover a lot of good ground.

"Best of Luck to You" is a classic.

Best,
