Amos Milburn: Bad Bad Whiskey – 1955

Originally from Texas, Amos Milburn moved to Los Angeles and soon became a fixture in the Central Avenue music scenes thriving in Watts during the 1940’s and 1950’s.

As you can hear from his piano style, Milburn would be a great influence on Fats Domino.

He wrote many hits during his day, and was also noted for recording Rudy Toombs’ “One Scotch, One Bourbon, One Beer.”
