Après Goldband, le groupe enregistre pour les labels Judd (dirigé par Jud Phillips) mais surtout Khoury et Lyric, les labels du producteur George Khoury. Sous la supervision de Khoury, ils enregistrent régulièrement entre 1958 et 1964. Le chant étant assuré préférentiellement par Huey "Cookie" Thierry et Shelton Dunaway, parfois par "Little" Alfred. Certains de leurs meilleurs titres entre Rhythm & Blues et Swamp-Pop datent de cette époque : "Got you on my mind" (qui sera même repris par Chess), "Mathilda", "Honey hush", "Betty and Dupree", "Shake 'em up", "The peanut", "The duck" (uniquement disponible dans la version CD).

FROM LOUISIANA BAYOU

P-Vine

December 1958 - 1963 / 1968

Ce CD couvre la même période que le précédent CD Jin, c'est à dire la production pour les labels Judd, Khoury et Lyric. Il y a donc quelques doublons. On trouve notamment dans ce nouveau disque quatre excellents morceaux inédits de 1968 : "For telling a lie", "Reaching", "Set me free" (un véritable blues) et "That's enough".

This CD covers the same period as the previous Jin CD, i.e. production for the Judd, Khoury and Lyric labels. So there are some duplications. We find in particular in this new disc four excellent unreleased tracks from 1968 : "For telling a lie", "Reaching", "Set me free" (a real blues) and "That's enough".
