One of the most popular shows we’ve done over the last couple of years was Friday night Fish Fry – our salute to Louie Jordan
And it was great fun to do so we are going to do it again down at the Fablous Kelvin Club in the city.
……and once again we will be joined by fellow Louie Jordan tragic, the incomparable Yvette Johansson.
To this day Louis Jordan still ranks as the top black recording artist of all time in terms of the total number of weeks at #1—his records scored an incredible total of 113 weeks in the No. 1 position (the runner-up being Stevie Wonder with 70 weeks)
His dozens of hit songs include the swinging “Saturday Night Fish Fry” (one of the earliest and most powerful contenders for the title of “First rock and roll record”),”Is You Is Or Is You Ain’t My Baby?” “Blue Light Boogie”, “Five guys named Moe” ,” Let the Goodtimes roll”, ” Barnyard Boogie” , “Run Joe” , “Caladonia” , “Ain’t Nobody Here but Us Chickens”, “Buzz Me,” and the multi-million seller “Choo Choo Ch’Boogie”.
With the wonderful YVETTE JOHANSSON, longtime Louie fans THE PEARLY SHELLS will be preforming 2 big sets from “The King of the jukebox” as part of the Friday night fish fry at the KELVIN CLUB, MELB CBD.
