Johnny Fuller was a journeyman blues and R&B singer who recorded and worked extensively on America's West Coast. He was obviously a major attraction considering the volume of releases he made on a myriad of local independent labels, and he was almost certainly a major money earner for jukebox operators despite never enjoying the pleasure of a charting hit. This 51 track collection from Jasmine is nowhere near his complete recorded work and serves as an excellent introduction to one of the unsung heroes of the blues. Includes the original version of "Haunted House" which went on to become a rock and roll standard. This is the most comprehensive collection of Johnny Fuller's work to the released on CD showcasing and hopefully bringing new interest to the career of this superb artist
