Delta Rhythm Boys: Carl Jones
Jason Gross, Perfect Sound Forever, January 2001
WHILE TROLLING AROUND an MP3 newsgroup one day, I saw the name 'Delta Rhythm Boys.' I had no idea who they were but the name intrigued me. From the name itself, I had to guess that they were some kind of early vocal group — turns out that it was a good guess. Also guessed that they'd provide some amazing harmonies and I definitely wasn't disappointed. (To hear the Deltas for yourself, keep an eye out for Dry Bones on RCA, a great compilation of their material from the '40's.)
