AN EXCELLENT PLAYING COPY OF THIS GREAT BOOGIE WOOGIE DOUBLE SIDED WESTERN SWING COUNTRY - ROCKER FROM THE LIGHTNING FINGERS OF MERRILL MOORE ON A UK CAPITOL PURPLE/SILVER DECCA PRESSED 78
THE HOUSE OF BLUE LIGHTS / BELL BOTTOM BOOGIE
A major early influence on Jerry lee Lewis - Merrill Moore sure does hammer those ivories on these two great sides!
THE HOUSE OF BLUE LIGHTS(Jacobs)
Lace up your your boots and a-broom on down
To a knocked-out shack on the edge of town
An eight-beat combo that just won't quit
Keep a-walking till you see a blue light lit
Call in there and you'll see some sights
At the house, the house, the house of blue lights
There's fires and broilers and Detroit barbecue ribs
But the treat of the treats
Is when they serve you all those fine eight-beats
You're gonna spend the rest of your brights
Down at the house, the house, the house of blue lights
Now we have a time and we cut some rugs
And we dig those tunes like they should be dug
A real home-coming for all the cats
Just shimmy down the path of the welcome mat
Call in there and you'll see some sights
At the house, the house, the house of blue lights
Great stuff!!
