With hundreds and reportedly even thousands of songs to his name, Jimmy McCracklin is a true legend of Blues and R&B, beginning his career in the post war era and thriving through the 50s recording scores of Jump Blues and Rock & Roll classics.
'What's That' was recorded during McCracklin's relatively brief spell at Mercury records in the early 60s, the era when R&B was morphing into the newer soul sound. 'What's That', based around an infectious bass guitar and horn riff, with complimenting group backing vocals and a swaggering rhythm, sits on this cusp beautifully, and you can almost hear it echoing around highly charged big dance halls as McCracklin calls out a roll call of major states and the latest dances sweeping around them.
The single was originally released as 'Part One' on the A-side, with a different song altogether on the flip. Our release includes the new to vinyl 'Part Two' on the flip side, meaning the irresistible groove of 'What's That' now plays out longer, and how it should have done...
