The Outside Man - Jimmy Bee


Jimmy Bee played with numerous 50s and 60s doo-wop and soul acts throughout his career. Perhaps the most notable was being part of the acclaimed Johnny Otis Show and providing backing vocals on "Willie And The Hand Jive". He recorded only one full LP entitled Live back in 1973. I'm normally not crazy about live records, or bootlegs for that matter, however after heeding the romantic advice of "The Outside Man" I made this one exception. Enjoy.
