Worshipped by rock gods such as Little Richard and Gene Vincent, flamboyant gospel pianist S Q Reeder Jr was tempted into the recording studio several times in 1958 to demonstrate his secular capabilities.
The resulting wildcat shakeouts, however, were deemed far too extreme even for black radio… Judge for yourself!
'Listening to the unshackled delights coursing through this expanded reissue it becomes apparent that the jungle freakout of Esquirita is as out-there as primal rock 'n' roll gets.' - 4/5 RECORD COLLECTOR
'There are the kind of records that at one time you were urged to roll back the carpet and turn up the volume to full blast. At less than a fiver, and with comprehensive notes from Dave Penny, this is too good to miss.'- NOW DIG THIS
