This Week on HARLEM…

Smiley Lewis

Smiley Lewis was New Orleans R&B; through and through, even though he never sold more than 100,000 copies of any of his many Imperial Singles. Today, he’s usually remembered as the guy who recorded the original version of the 1955 classic “I Hear You Knockin'”, but there’s so much to Smiley than that. Get the story behind the story on Smiley Lewis from Matt The Cat, this week on HARLEM.

Thanks and remember, whatever you do, do it with a little bit o’ soul baby.
