“Here’s the Man.   I mean the man.   The Dynamic Bobby… Bobby Bland!!”   Duke Records   (1962)   One of my personal favorites.   From the amazing James Brown at the Apollo-like introduction into “36-22-36” to “Ain’t That Loving You” and “Turn On Your Love Light” this one is soulful and funky and his band is so tight!

Tracks:   36-22-36 / You’re the One (That I Adore) / Turn on Your Love Light / Who Will the Next Fool Be / You’re Worth It All / Blues in the Night /Your Friends / Ain’t that Loving You / Jelly Jelly Jelly / Twistin’ Up the Road / Stormy Monday Blues
