Good thing, too, because it was Ruth Brown who put Atlantic on the map, make no mistake. She did that with 24 R\u0026amp;B hit singles from 1949 to 1960, five of which crossed over to the Billboard Pop charts.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\"Ruth Brown's second LP is a minor masterpiece, built around a handful of hit singles and B-sides from the prior year (\"Book of Lies,\" \"Just Too Much,\" \"When I Get You Baby,\" \"This Little Girl's Gone Rockin',\" \"Why Me\") and containing a pair of current single sides, \"Jack O' Diamonds\" and \"I Can't Hear a Word You Say.\" Brown is amazing in her range, from the upbeat, romantic \"I Hope We Meet (On the Road Someday)\" to the jaunty shouter \"Why Me\" -- her timbre ranges from sweetly romantic to hard and raspy, and listening to the transformations, between the smooth, quick tempo \"Just Too Much\" to the hard, lusty \"Somebody Touched Me,\" one thinks of a distaff Sam Cooke. Brown's accompaniments may have lacked the polish of Cooke's sides, and she wasn't really shooting for pop-crossover success (though she saw some). Her singing even overcomes excessively pop-oriented arrangements on \"When I Get You Baby.\" At various times, in her upper register, Brown recalls Clyde McPhatter's falsetto singing, while in her middle and lower registers, as on \"I Can't Hear a Word You Say,\" she comes up with a power that could melt a microphone stand.\"\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e - Bruce Eder\/AMG\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• High quality 180g Vinyl LP\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Re-mastered by Ray Staff at Air Mastering\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Made in the U.K.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSelections:\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSide One:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1.
