The Texas Blues Of Smokey Hogg

This is the 5th compilation of the prolific Smokey Hogg to be issued by Ace. It ties in with the first biography of the Texas bluesman from Guido van Rijn. It will appeal to both pre and post War blues aficionados, a period that Smokey's career straddled.

All of the tracks are new to CD with four previously unissued in any form. Among them is the alternative take of his Top 5 chart song 'Good Mornin' Little School Girl' corrected for speed from its Crown LP issue. A rare Smokey instrumental is the first one to appear anywhere.
