Description
James Wayne (aka Wee Willie Wayne) was a unique and original sounding singer and songwriter. Here Jasmine has put together his LP "Travellin' Mood" with his recordings for Bob Shad's "Sittin' in with" label plus some bonus singles.
This excellent release contains some of his greatest work and includes his first and only chart hit "Tend To Your Business" which sailed to No. 2 on billboard's R&B chart. Also included is his most famous recording, "Junco Partner" which has been recorded by scores of artists including The Clash and Dr. John.
His song "Travellin' Mood" became the inspiration for Mungo Jerry's hit "In the Summertime".
Fully detailed liner notes follow the interesting and tragic life of James Wayne.
