nice!

The Soulful Salem Travelers is still definitely a sleeper on the Checker label. Should be a much bigger sound than it currently is ie practically non-existent....a tip for 2016 no doubt.

I agree Greg. Fantastic track that should be heard more. One of my favourite tracks this year. I never get tired of hearing it... And the LP is not that common.

Enjoyed this set. Extra kudos for closing on a killer Leroy Hutson production!
