Larry Darnell - I'Ll Get Along Somehow: 1949-1957

Larry Darnell was a huge but now-forgotten star of black music and was an important component of the sound that became New Orleans R&B in the 1950s. Six Billboard Top Ten hits during 1949-50, including "For You My Love" (No. 1 for eight weeks in 1949 in both the Jukebox and Best Seller charts), "I'll Get Along Somehow" (No. 2 in 1950), "I Love My Baby" (No. 4 in 1950) and "Oh, Babe!" (No. 5 in 1950). All included here. This compilation collates the very best of Darnell's slow blues and up-tempo jump recordings.
