Leroy Jenkins and his Band
Talent Records # T-1001 - Dallas, TX - 1949
Side A - You Two Timed Me Three Timed Me (BB 164)
Side B - Forever And Ever (BB 165)
Leroy Jenkins cut quite a few side for various labels around the late 40's early 50's (Columbia, Flair & Dude) . This release on 'Talent' was his first release and was like many others he recorded were done in Dallas at Jim Beck's studio in Dallas.
At just six months old Leroy went blind and from the age of 7 was schooled in Austin Texas for the school for the blind. He was born July 28th 1921 and died Dec 18th 1990.
The A side about a wrong doing woman is mighty mighty fine and you can see why Jim Beck & Don Law got him back to record and get releases on Columbia. It's just a great record, super Steel and just perfect vocals from Mr Jenkins. The flip is good decent weepie country, played with style and competence.
Both Matrix numbers appear to be connected to the Blue Bonnet Label as BB 164/165.
