Eli Paperboy Reed is celebrating 20 years of making soulful music with the re-release of his very first album, Sings Walkin' And Talkin' And Other Smash Hits! The set was originally recorded in a basement studio in Allston, Massachusetts, all live to analog tape in mono and pressed as a limited run of 300 CDs in 2005. This self-released CD was mostly sold while Reed busked on the streets of Harvard Square in Cambridge, Mass in his early 20s.
This deluxe edition includes all 12 tracks from Eli's debut album and 15 never before released tracks! The first disc of the newly remastered double LP reissue contains the original album, plus four additional tracks recorded the same December day in 2004. The second disc contains 11 tracks from a session recorded for WHRB radio at Harvard University in 2005. The single deluxe CD will contain all of the songs featured on the deluxe LP.
This deluxe set presents Reed’s humble beginnings in Boston by way of Mississippi and Chicago, playing his own rough and ready interpretations of down-home blues, R&B and gospel. With this 20th anniversary release and the celebration of two decades of legendary live performances, Reed cements himself as an elder statesman of the genre.
