Product Review:
Cousin Joe's The Complete 1945-1947 Vol. 1 more sharp, humorous New Orleans blues from this underrated artist.
Cousin Joe -- born Pleasant Joseph in New Orleans -- recorded prolifically for Signature and DeLuxe between 1945 and 1946, blending barrelhouse piano blues with sharp, often humorous lyrics. This 1995 Blue Moon compilation collects 21 NYC sessions across that period, opening with "Broken Man Blues" and running through titles like "Post War Future Blues" and "Desperate G.I. Blues," which reflect the anxieties of the immediate postwar moment.
