This 24 track CD spotlights Higgins' 1950s work for Jake Porter's Combo Records and is full of the reckless, good-time R&B that everyone associates with that label's output. The earliest of the sides included here feature the first recorded vocal performances of Johnny "Guitar" Watson (then primarily known as a boogie piano man) - including the original master of 'Motor Head Baby,' from which a certain famous heavy metal band got their name. Also featured are some classic early R&B rockers with vocals by Chuck's brother Fred - aka "Daddy Cleanhead" - all of which are highly prized by collectors of uptempo rhythm 'n' rock. Hardly any of these tracks have ever been on CD before - and three have never been issued before.
