Booker James - Live Manchester (1977) - Vinyl

Before critics crowned Elton John the piano man, there was James Booker, a prolific bluesman, jazzman, soulman and rock-and-roller who struck the keys like a classically trained musician on a bender. This rare live recording is a must-have. And the grooves on the "Rip It Up/ Long Tall Sally" medley alone can give the Rocket Man a run for his money.
