Strapping Bobby Glynn Luman was born in the tiny East Texas community of Blackjack, close to Nacogdoches, in 1937, and was set to make a career in baseball before encountering the force of nature that was the Tupelo Flash in 1955. Borrowing the band of his friend Mac Curtis in 1956, Bob cut a series of demos at Jim Shell's Dallas studio before signing to Imperial, recording these fine sides featuring his pal James Burton on guitar.
