Album Notes
Personnel: Slim Harpo (vocals, guitar, harmonica).Recording information: Crowley, LA (03/1957-??/1967); Memphis, TN (03/1957-??/1967); Nashville, TN (03/1957-??/1967); New Orleans, LA (03/1957-??/1967).There have been many Slim Harpo best-ofs available over the years, some frustratingly incomplete. This one gets all the chart hits together with several of the obscure singles like "Wonderin' and Worryin'," "Strange Love," "One More Day," and "You'll Be Sorry One Day," along with album tracks like "Snoopin' Around" and "Blues Hangover." Transfers are clean and exemplary, and this makes as good an introduction into his music as any currently available. ~ Cub Koda

Editorial Reviews
...[Harpo's] warm, infectious and good-natured approach comes over with great effectiveness....a very pleasant (and often more than that) collection of immaculately played modern blues which Slim's warm personality animates delightfully...

Best of Harpo Slim

Created: 02/08/06
Delta Blues style. It feels like Harpo Slim has put much of himself into his songs (like "ONE MORE DAY") He sounds as if he is asking me to help him share part of his load and feel the edge of his pain. And yet I still smile when I hear his joy coming through and I may be a 68 year old white O.F. but his raspy voice moves me. When I feel down I play a little Harpo Slim and rev up my mood.

Its a classic , distinctive singing style...the good ones die too young.
Heard a song from a Movie sound track song was Shake your Hips and that lead me to look for Slim Harpo selections. This CD DID NOT DISAPOINT.
