Bill Justis: Raunchy (LP)

(POLYGRAM) 10 tracks Smash 1962-65

This LP features 10 instrumental tracks recorded between 1962 and 1965 by saxophonist, arranger, and producer Bill Justis — best known for his groundbreaking 1957 hit Raunchy. The selections on this album stem from his later period with Smash Records, showcasing a distinctive blend of rock’n’roll, twang, and instrumental pop led by his trademark saxophone sound. This is a “cut-out” new stock pressing from Polygram, with a 2 cm cut in the cover (see product photo). The vinyl itself is unplayed and in mint condition. A budget-friendly collector’s item for fans of instrumental rock and vintage Nashville studio work.

Bill Justis

In 1957, Justis' alto-sax dominated recording `Raunchy' was a huge hit for Phillips International, one of the first in a series of rock instrumentals which paved the way for the success of the Champs, the Ventures and Duane Eddy. Justis, born in Birmingham, Alabama on October 14, 1927, was a professional jazz musician and arranger who came to rock'n'roll production with Sun in Memphis in 1957.

Besides his own recordings, he arranged hits for Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis and Charlie Rich and was active in mellowing the raw sounds of Sun rock'n'roll for a national pop audience.

In 1959, he formed his own short-lived label, Play Me, and then joined Groove-RCA as an artist and producer, again working with Charlie Rich. He moved to Monument and Sound Stage 7 in Nashville, for whom he produced big hits for the Dixiebelles.
