The Cleftones were one of many talented doowop groups to emerge from New York during the 50s, scoring their biggest hit with the memorable classic Little Girl Of Mine, along with other pop and R&B hits like Heart And Soul. Having got together at high school in Queens, N.Y., they signed to George Goldners Gee label and made records over the next few years which doowop aficionados rank alongside some of the best in the genre, until breaking up when overtaken by the British Invasion in 1963. This 45-track set comprises all the A and B sides, released during this period, featuring the various evolving line-ups of the group, along with all the tracks from the Pajama Party, Heart And Soul & For Sentimental Reasons albums which were not otherwise released on singles it represents almost all their career recording output. As such, its a thorough overview of their active recording career, and a comprehensive showcase for their distinctive style and talent.

Duke Robillard’s second 2003 release could just as well have been titled Living With the Blues, Part 2, since it picks up where his 2002 album of that name left off. Returning to the Roomful of Blues horn sound (where he began his recording career in 1977), Robillard employs brass on the majority of these rocking blues tracks. In fact, both saxist Doug James and trombone player Carl Querfurth (who play on this album) are Roomful alumni, as is pianist Matt McCabe. The horns are used more for embellishment, though, in contrast to Roomful, where they often define the sound. The opening mid-tempo swamp rock of “Down Home Country Girl” kicks things off in tough form with Robillard’s gutsy singing fronting the powerful brass, but a short guitar solo fades out just as it builds up a head of steam. Robillard then branches out into classic R&B territory when he duets with Pam Tillis on a sweet and sassy version of “I’ll Never Be Free,” a tune made popular by Tennessee Ernie Ford, Dinah Washington, Louis Jordan, and others. Rollicking tracks such as “Real Live Wire,” “How Long Has It Been” (a crackling vocal and guitar duet with Debbie Davies, returning the favor of Robillard producing her Love the Game album), and a rockabilly-flavored “Love Made a Liar of Me” keep the mood upbeat. The lounge/jazz swing of the title track (with sensual French spoken-word from Aimee Hill along with Robillard playing a guitar synth that sounds like a trumpet) and “Double X Daddy” brings the disc back to the Roomful days with swanky horn solos. “Deep Inside” hearkens back to classic blues/R&B that Robillard does so well. He adds a stinging, staccato, Albert King-styled solo that stabs through the song and is one of the album’s finest leads. A percussion-heavy, Bo Diddley-ized version of James Wayne’s “Travelin’ Mood” closes out an album that shows a few different sides of Robillard, but stays closer to his blues and swing roots. He seems to be having a blast throughout, and even though his voice isn’t as polished as his guitar skills, he puts across these songs with exuberance and class. It’s another excellent entry to an already strong catalog that continues to improve with age.
