Details:
Lavern Baker helped to light the fuse which set off the rock 'n' roll explosion but resented the success of the white artists who made the charts with covers of her songs

These mid-fifties tracks cut for Atlantic capture her at her commercial best with pop hits such as "Tweedle Dee", "Bop-Ting -a-Ling" & "Jim Dandy"

There is also a fine session directed by Ray Ellis consisting of updated swing era tunes which had originally inspired her
