Released March 1957 (Imperial LP-9038). The previous LPs were current with oldies padding, this one’s oldies with current padding. Which is fine, at least these Imperial albums are always laying out new tracks as far as the album discography is concerned – there was a bit of value for the album fan. Four of the cuts come from his 1949 sessions – they’re all terrific and far from filler, exemplified in the fantastic slow blues burner “Detroit City” which opens up side one. Raunchy album highlight “You Can Pack Your Suitcase” was a side back in 1954 and thoroughly deserves its placement here in the album story. Elsewhere, Fats continues to indulge his passion for a bit of the old pop croon with “I’m In The Mood For Love”, originally performed by Frances Langford in the movie “Every Night at Eight” way back in 1935. What can I say? He’s an improvement on Vera Lynn…
