Acrobat continues their series highlighting the American Juke Box/Harlem Hit Parade/Race Record/Rhythm & Blues chart hits by a selection of the biggest stars of the 1940”s and 1950”s swing, jazz, jump blues and R&B scenes. Most of these performers have never had their biggest hits compiled in one place. Andy Kirk had the distinction of having the very first No 1 hit on the very first published chart with “”Take It And Git”” He had one of the most popular bands of the period.
