In anticipation of the forthcoming full length compilation of wild Latin Rumba accented Rhythm & Blues 'Jukebox Mambo', we have followed up the success of our unique 102 release!

The eagerly anticipated 2nd release in our unique Jukebox Jam 10" series. As with the first, this comes in a specially designed and hand screen-printed company bag and features the smaller '78' style label on a flat-mould vinyl 10” EP.

In anticipation of 'Jukebox Mambo' - the forthcoming compilation of wild Latin Rumba Rhythm & Blues, we've culled 5 tracks from Jake Porter's legendary LA indie label Combo - 2 of which have never been available on vinyl before, having been unissued back in the 50s. All 5 tracks have that Latin feel which under-pinned so many hot R&B sides through the mid-‘50s as the Mambo Craze reached feverish heights.

Vocal group The Chanters' 'Hot Mamma' boasts an awesome vocal turn from Ethel Brown - who plays the sultry sexual predator as she warns her fellow womenfolk 'If you wanna keep your man - keep him outta my way!', over a cool rumba-edged riff on the Hound Dog riff. Joe Porters 'Cha Cha All Nite Long' reworks his own earlier hit for the Latin set. On the flip side, Chuck Higgins top instro 'Blues N Mambo' is all rolling drums and honking horns whilst we also feature a previously unreleased take of Jack McVea's wild group number 'Chop Chop Boom' and end the set with the unissued 'T-Town Mambo', a jazzy female vocal piece with a sweet Latin seasoning.
