Here Comes the Nite Owl

Here Comes the Nite Owl

A long overdue and very welcome salute to one of the more colorful characters and most prolific West Coast R&B acts of the 1950s and early 60s. Features Allen's complete Kent and Specialty recordings - including the all time doo wop classic <i>Nite Owl</i> - as well as the best of his Dig and Ebb sides, some of which are previously unissued.<P>No duplication whatsoever with any existing Tony Allen CDs, legal or otherwise! Generously illustrated with label shots of every released 45 and many previously unseen pix from the Crown album photo shoot.<P>From tear-throated rockers to cool doo woppers, this is yet another piece in the Hollywood R&B jigsaw that Ace is pleased to finally be able to fill in.
