5 CD Set

 Unreleased holy-grail-recordings by James Booker, the tragic Piano Genius from New Orleans / Three full solo concerts on five CDs, more than five hours of music in pristine audio quality.

A major new discovery for all fans of New Orleans music and R&B piano / Includes 60-page book containing many unreleased photos and extensive liner notes with lots of new research about Booker's European tours / Exclusive foreword is written by Cyril Neville. From Jelly Roll Morton to Jon Batiste, the city of New Orleans has produced more great piano players than any other place on earth. But James Carroll Booker III may very well have been the greatest of them all. When he died in 1983 at the age of 43 after years of health problems and drug abuse, only four Booker albums had been released, and his fans have been searching for additional recordings that showcase his genius ever since.

With its comprehensive new release 'Behind The Iron Curtain plus,' RICHARD WEIZE ARCHIVES intends to tell, for the very first time, the full story of James Booker's European adventures.

It includes three complete Booker shows on 5 CDs: East Berlin (December 1976), Lausanne (January 1977) and Leipzig (October 1977). Interestingly, at that time East Berlin and Leipzig were part of socialist East Germany, a country that no longer exists, and how Booker got there and why he played some of the best shows of his career behind the Iron Curtain, of all places, is a whole story unto itself. James Booker was a virtuoso technician who combined influences as diverse as Ludwig van Beethoven and Ray Charles, Erroll Garner and Fats Domino, Frédéric Chopin and Professor Longhair into a unique style of New Orleans R&B piano that hasn't been duplicated to this day. No other posthumous Booker release has done full justice to his genius and we hope that 'Behind The Iron Curtain plus...' will lead to a new appraisal of one of American music's most gifted and overlooked originals.

Fabulous, especially for sensitive skin and those with aversion to textures.
Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: Spray
Keeps my skin from turning UGLIER. THIS actually WORKS. I do not wish to be any tanner than I come naturally, and this is the BEST sunscreen I've ever used. I do use a wipe to remove the overspray from my eye area. It does not irritate my incredibly sensitive skin, and sprays on easily..like a dream. No more sandy spf moments!..I can't stand that creamy+oily stuff all over my hands then throw in a little sand - now we have a sensory concern..NOT WITH THIS STUFF!! Highly recommend. Easy to use. KeyWest rays had nothing on this..we came back slightly tan, not burnt, and not a looking like a different ethicity. Reapply as recommend.

Best Sunscreen Ever
Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: Spray, Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: Spray
BEST. SUNSCREEN. EVER. Seriously. My skin is paper-white and I'm highly tattooed, so sun safety is very important to me. 100 SPF for total protection is unbeatable and I have yet to burn even a little. I'm also very texture-sensitive so I can't stand thick, gloopy, sticky lotions. This one actually sprays on clear, soaks in right away, is light, and even a little bit refreshing. The spray mechanism also makes it easier to get my back without help. There's no off-putting smell, no mess, no problems. I do reapply if I'm out for a while so I'll need to reorder soon, but I'm not mad about it at all. It's very affordable compared to the alternatives and entirely worth it.

Still fried.
Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: Spray
Smells good and you don’t feel it after applying it. My son and I still got sun burnt which is normal for our fair skin. I’ve never blistered before and using this I did even reapplying half way through my time of being on the beach for an hour and most of that time under an umbrella.

My first choice for Spray SPF 100 rated products.
Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: Spray
I really like this spray on SPF 100 product over other brands I have used. There is really no issues with application and no detectable odor or fragrance after it drys. I really can't find anything negative to note about this stuff & it seems to work well. For someone who needs the very best sunblock to use every day, this wins my First Place Award over all the other products I have used.
