The "Juke In The Back" concludes its two part series on Aladdin
Records, one of the most important independent labels of the pre-rock

Amos Milburn and Charles Brown. We'll also dig some of the

in that almost everything they pressed was worth hearing. If you
ever see a discarded Aladdin 45 by an artist you've never heard
