Album Details
The Pleasures of Drinking have Been Celebrated in Music Throughout History, and on 'rhythm and Booze' We've Gathered Together a Selection of Tracks Written Specifically on the Subject of Alcohol, with the Occasional Reference to the Female of the Species. The Tracks Are all from the Height of the R&B Era (The 1940's-1950's), Pre-rock 'n' Roll. Heavy Drinking Has Always Been Over-glamorized and Certainly after World War Ii Excessive Behaviour was Tolerated and Accepted, Rather Than Frowned Upon. For the First Time Many People Had a Disposable Income; Money in their Pocket to Spend as They Wished. Lounges and Late-night Clubs Sprung Up all Over the Place, Either featuring Live Acts Or Housing a Jukebox. Big Swing Bands were Replaced with Smaller Ensembles, with a Tinkling Piano Or Honking Sax as the Main Focus of the Group. A Style Called 'jump Blues' Became Popular - an Energetic and Often Humorous Form of R&b.
