The Bo Street Runners Exile On Bo Street (LP)

(Munster Records) 16 tracks

The Bo Street Runners hit rhythm & blues from every possible angle — from tough. earthy blues to smooth, sleek soul. Some first rate musi-cians passed through their ranks during their three-year lifespan, some going on to bigger ventures, and while none of their records broke into the charts they attracted an enthusiastic following wherever they played. 50 years after their break-up, their brilliant 1964-1966 recordings, collected here on vinyl for the first time, are still generat-ing heat and moving feet.
