Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Jerry Butler (“The Ice Man”)reprises one of his mega-hits of the seventies - "I Stand Accused". Isaac Hayes covered this song a few years later and enjoyed a mega hit himself with Jerry's composition. From the LocoBop album Brand New Me, by Jerry Butler.

Papa Don McMinn was instrumental in the rebirth of the Home of the Blues: Beale Street in Memphis Tennessee. For years, his band had the "house gig" at Rum Boogie on the corner of Beale and Highway 61. His blues guitar prowess is equal to his vocal delivery. This is one of his fans' instrumental favorites.

Inspired by the "Beach Music" scene on the Carolina coast, Eddie Floyd and Carson Whitsett conjured up this paean to the culture, kids, and bands ruling places like Myrtle Beach. Cut in 1980, this track was first released by Arista Records.

The Loco Electric Orchestra might easily have been called the Loco Eclectic Orchestra, since its musical output flits between styles at producer Tim Whitsett’s whim. While the tracks on this album unmistakably come from the same “place”, the center of gravity shifts from song to
song, revealing a diversification you’d expect from someone like Whitsett who has worked with song catalogs ranging from Otis Redding, Al Green, Isaac Hayes, Chuck Berry, and Bobby Blue Bland to Gilbert & Sullivan, David Bowie, Jethro Tull, Irving Berlin, Cole Porter, and George Gershwin.

The Masqueraders reprise their performance of "A Change is Gonna Come" which brought the house down on America's Got Talent last year, and scored a resounding "yes” from each of the four AGT judges.

The Masqueraders’ genesis goes back over fifty years when a group of high school buddies in Dallas, Texas formed the singing group. The Masqueraders have since evolved into one of America’s iconic vocal groups. Still very actively writing songs, performing, and recording, they now are based in Memphis, Tennessee.

Their new EP, produced by Bobby Manuel,  is available for sale and streaming worldwide. It was released by Kudzu Electric Records in late April 2018 and contains three versions of "A Change is Gonna Come", including the instrumental backing track.
