In an interesting twist, I found a copy of this record (which was on my want list for quite some time) on a California label (it was originally released on a local New Orleans label, then was picked up for national distribution) while on my trip to New Orleans. California dude finds California pressed copy of New Orleans record in New Orleans! Perhaps the logical explanation would be that this record was so popular locally that it was still selling even after it was released on a bigger, national label.
I would believe it, as this is one red hot record. Chuck Carbo's career started out in NOLA in the 1940's, and in the fifties his group morphed into the Spiders, who had a number of r&b hits.
This track finds Chuck in the studio with Eddie Bo and his brilliant band and the results are, well, downright ass shaking. The b side ain't shabby, either.
from 1970...
