• The great bluesman’s original 1958 Crown album remains the benchmark by which all his subsequent album releases are measured.• This expanded reissue, part of Ace’s ongoing series of original Crown reissues, follows the pattern established by our B.B. King, Howlin’ Wolf and Elmore James reissues by augmenting the original dozen inclusions with a further selection of original Modern 78rpm releases. Most of these are new to CD.• At least half of these tracks have never been reissued in the CD format. In most cases they have not been reissued at all.• Interest in Jimmy Witherspoon’s early recordings has never been greater than it is now. Here are a dozen and a half of the very best of them
