  2. 'Big Breast Obsessed'. 'I like jugs in my face anytime anyplace.' LOL. First time I've heard that one. Interesting that it's a big production number - full horn section, back up singers; must not have been cheap to make that record.

  4. Hi Monsieur Jujube, going back a few years ago I was only making blues/R&B/soul/gospel compilations. I didn't get into making up specific Hillbilly/Country, Soul, Jazz, Rockabilly compilations until recently. So back when it was just blues/R&B/soul compilations I'd add in tracks from artists like Patsy Cline if that particular song was "bluesy", likewise jazz artists, if it was a "bluesy" jazz track it got in. But now that I'm making many more genre specific compilations I would put a track like this Patsy Cline one into a Country compilation. Anyway, glad you're enjoying the compilations, always lots of surprises and lots of variety.
