Info

Floyd Dixon landed at Art Rupe's Specialty label in 1953, his music jumping harder than ever. These 22 tracks rate with his best the collection is full of rarities and previously unissued items, many featuring the wailing tenor sax of Carlos Bermudez in lusty support of the pianist. By 1957, when he momentarily paused at Ebb Records, Dixon could do a pretty fair breathless imitation of Little Richard, as the scorching Oooh Little Girl definitively proves.

Floyd Dixon February 8, 1929 July 26, 2006 was an American rhythm-and-blues pianist and singer. Dixon was born in Marshall, Texas. Some sources give his birth name as Jay Riggins, Jr. although he himself stated that Floyd Dixon was his real name and that his parents were Velma and Ford Dixon. Growing up, he was influenced by blues, gospel, jazz and country music. His family moved to Los Angeles, California, in 1942. There Dixon met Charles Brown, who had an influence on his music. Floyd Dixon is probably one of the better Rhythm & Blues singers to have emerged from the 1950s, yet he remains unheard of to the casual listener today. Floyd Dixon's cool, almost relaxing style of Rhythm & Blues often puts him in the same category as those such as Charles Brown, surely a big compliment for Dixon. Floyd Dixon passed away in 2006 and it's a real shame that his music isn't as well known as it should be. Send message to support service Read answers from support service.
