AllMusic Review by

A curious gaggle of poorly recorded live tracks, late period studio tracks, and what sound like Atlantic outtakes. Turner is in fine vocal form throughout, no matter how lame the backing, but this isn't one you want to start your Big Joe Turner collection with. Bottom line: It's really not worth the effort to acquire unless you're an obsessed completist.
