HANK BALLARD & THE MIDNIGHTERS - NOTHING BUT GOOD 1952 - 1962
A stunning 5 CD box set that comes with a 84+ page book, 150 Federal & King rhythm & blues & doo-wop group masters.... Five jam-packed discs include unissued gems, alternate takes, un-reissued rarities, all with that great attention to detail that Bear Family releases are known for!
The discs open with Hank Ballard's earliest appearances as lead singer of The Royals, before collecting every song The Midnighters recorded from 1954 through 1962, first for King's Federal subsidiary and from '58 on for the parent King label.
This magnificent collection unearths several previously unreleased titles, a selection of unheard alternate takes, and a slew of obscure 45s and album tracks that have consistently eluded CD reissue until now.
