Lloyd 'Tiny' Grimes was a master guitar player and a pioneer in the world of music at a time when R&B music was becoming Rock 'n' Roll.

26 tracks by the man many claim was the 'inventor' of Rock 'n' Roll.

Contains the A & B sides of records issued by the guitarist on Atlantic and Gotham labels between 1947 and 1953 including his 1948 hit 'Midnight Special'.

Musicians on these sessions include tenor sax player Red Prysock and bass player Ike Isaacs, both famous for their overall contribution to music.

The appearance of Claudine Clark on the final track asks the question 'Is it the same Miss Clark who recorded 'Party Lights' in 1962?'

The CD comes with an informative booklet containing label scans, photos and press ads for the artist from the time of the recordings.
