ALVIN ROBINSON SHINE ON

 

CHARLY RECORDS  1988                        CRB 1181 

Born in New Orleans in 1937. His first successful release was on Tiger records USA,

 a subsidiary label owned by Jerry Lieber and Mike Stoller. They moved Alvin

 to Red Bird for his next release; 'Fever'/ 'Down Home Girl'. Down Home Girl was 

the 'b' side and played more often at UK and Belgium soul clubs, as Fever by 

Little Willie John would take precedence on a DJ's play list, due to the fact that 

these clubs (Wheel/Blue Note) preferred originals. That said, 

Alvin's version of Fever is extremely good.

He played on Dr John Gumbo album.
