    King Coleman Down In The Basement / Crazy Feelin'

    Jukebox Jam Series
    • King Coleman – Down In The Basement
    • King Coleman – Crazy Feelin'
    • 1. Down In The Basement
    • 2. Crazy Feelin'

    Tremendous twin-spin two sider from larger than life, cult hero King Coleman. Famous for singing - uncredited - 'The Mashed Potatoes', the 1959 dance craze hit with backing from James Brown's band, Coleman's career was much more varied and lengthy than such fleeting infamy would otherwise suggest. Here, we have Coleman appearing on two early 60s, low slung and sleazy R&B dancers, both 'Down in The Basement' and 'Crazy Feelin' are total killers.
