From The Vaults of Ric & Ron Records Rare & Unreleased Recordings 1958-1962
Numero Uno Record Store Day 2012
Between 1958 and 1962, Ric and Ron Records captured the sound of a unique period in New Orleans music, when the first era of classic R&B was waning, and before the sounds of funk and soul music became the city’s new signature. It was an exciting time, when talents such as Johnny Adams, Eddie Bo, Al Johnson, Irma Thomas and many others made their debuts on Ric and Ron singles. Here are ultra- rare recordings from the vaults, presented on ten 45 RPM records, with booklet and notes.
