Virginia's own Gary "U.S." Bonds released Dance 'til Quarter to Three, his debut album, in 1961 hot on the heels of the chart topping hit of the same name. That classic piece of rock and R&B history is featured here along with 11 other stellar numbers, including his first hit single, the wonderful "New Orleans". Bonds went on to work with the legendary Swamp Dogg, as well as the Boss and his E Street Band, but he never quite reached the sheer urgency and pure dancing joy of this, his very first record, reissued lovingly on LP by Rumble.
