I'm a lover not a fighter : the complete Excello records singles 1956-1962 plus bonus tracks

"Among [J.D.] Miller's numerous protegés - all of whom shared an affinity for loping Creole rhythms and simple, yet funky riffs - Lester emerged as the chief harmonica player ... his enduring reputation rests largely on the vibrancy of those earliest Miller-produced tracks ... Thematically speaking, the bulk of the lyrics address the guy-done-wrong-by-a-no-account-woman scenario. Musically, the brief and mournful harp riffs stand out, keenly accenting the spaces following vocalized lines; along with Lester's innate sense of rhythmic bayou swing and his drawled voice, they define his essential sound".
