Slim Harpo - The Original King Bee - Analogue Productions LP

180-Gram Vinyl LP

The definitive collection from the king of swamp blues. Across 14 original Excello recordings, Louisiana's Slim Harpo lays down the lazy, hypnotic, deeply funky grooves that made him one of the most influential bluesmen of his era — a sound that hit the pop charts and was eagerly absorbed by the Rolling Stones, the Yardbirds, and countless others. From the immortal "I'm a King Bee" and the chart hit "Rainin' in My Heart" to the irresistible shuffle of "Baby Scratch My Back" and "Shake Your Hips," this is essential, dance-floor-ready blues.
