Review by Chris Sundberg

Im Just Your Fool A 12, the latest album from Buddy Johnson And His Orchestra, is a true masterpiece of swing and jazz. From the first track to the last, the listener is transported back to the golden age of big band music, with Johnson's smooth vocals and the orchestra's impeccable instrumentation.

The album kicks off with the upbeat "Let's Beat Out Some Love," a catchy tune that sets the tone for the rest of the record. Other highlights include the soulful "Since I Fell for You," the swinging "Walk 'Em," and the romantic ballad "I'm Just Your Fool."

Throughout the album, Johnson's vocals are a standout, perfectly complementing the orchestra's arrangements. The band's musicianship is top-notch, with each member shining on their respective solos.

Notes

  • Very thin and flexible vinyl so presumably a later repress?
  • Variant: labels and pressing rings seem to match those of "I'm Just Your Fool / A-12," but this pressing is definitely thick shellac.
