From King/Federal Records. "Lonnie's long and fruitful association with King Records of Cincinnati began in 1947 and continued until 1952. At this stage of his career he was required to perform what would be called R&B which really needed a full band, usually sax based, in support and King supplied him with session men of the calibre of Hot Lips Page, Hal Singer, Todd Rhodes, Teddy Buckner and Red Prysock to match his own qualities as guitarist and vocalist.".
