POOVEY,Groovy Joe- Greatest Grooves - RCCD 3037

The only sad part about this album is that Joe Poovey died just a few hours after approving the booklet notes and photographs that are included with this collection. The album itself is a real treat - a glorious and uplifting compilation of the best (and rockinest) of Joe Poovey. All his originals are here together with some fine unissued tracks and long-forgotten gems, including his very earliest recordings, dating from 1954. TRACKS: Move Around; Sweet Louella; Ten Long Fingers; Careful Baby; My Life’s Ambition; Nursery Rock; The Thrill Of Love; Don’t Blame It On Me; Silence Baby; Part Time Hero; The Trouble With You; Wild Girl; Don’t Blame It On Me; Move Around (Live); Honolulu Rock-A-Roll-A; Livin’ Alone; Ocean Of Diamonds; Pride; Will The Circle Be Unbroken?; You Are My Sunshine; Lightnin’ ‘Cross The Sky; Deep Ellum Blues; To Get From There To Here; The Jungle To The Zoo; Ten Long Fingers (Déjà Vu); Deep Ellum Rock; Move Around (Dixie Single Version); Sweet Louella; Santa’s Helper; Christmas Filled With Cheer
