A member of the Arizona Blues Hall Of Fame. King C(K)arl was born Bernard Jolivette on Dec. 31, 1931 in Grand Coteau, LA. He moved to Beaumont, TX in 1945 and returned to Louisiana 1955. He moved to Arizona in 1992. He passed away on Dec. 7, 2005.
He began his career as a vocalist as a teenager. He was a featured singer with Lloyd Price for awhile. He performed with Black Creole, Howard Broussard and the Musical Kings which also featured Guitar Gable. They recorded for Excello records at J.D. Miller's studio in Crowley, LA. This group is considered by many to be the founders of a genre of music known as Swamp Pop music featuring ballads, Rock & Roll and Blues.
Not a record grader at all but it looks pretty good for a 1966 record...did not play as I don't have a decent sound system...see pictures for the actual record to be sold!
