    About this album

    Callin' The Blues is a hard-swinging late-1950s jazz session that brings together guitarist Tiny Grimes and trumpeter J.C. Higginbotham with real grit and feel. Issued in 1958, it sits at the crossroads of swing, blues and the emerging soul-jazz mood, with Grimes' sharp guitar lines answering Higginbotham's warm, declamatory horn. The album's appeal lies in its directness: relaxed but insistent rhythms, strong melodic themes and a bandstand energy that keeps the music rooted in blues feeling rather than polished display. It stands as a fine example of post-war jazz players shaping small-group music with personality and swing.
