Hustler's Blues
The Best of... 2004 via Sony
a note about this track

Blues Plate Special: A Sophisticated Piano Blues That Was Rooted In An Extremely Different Urban Setting, Introducing A More Polished Sound. He Joined A Circus And, After A Spell In The Army, Got Involved In Bootlegging. Speakeasies Were Everywhere So Leroy's Talents On Piano Found A Ready Audience. A Long Partnership With Guitarist Scrapper Blackwell Was Forged In 1928, Leading To A Seven Year Recording Career Writing And Recording Almost 200 Tracks Ending In 1935 When The Booze Finally Caught Up To Carr, Passing On A Few Days After His Thirtieth Birthday.
