Witherspoon made his first records with Jay McShann's band in 1945. He first recorded under his own name in 1947, and two years later with the McShann band, he had his first hit, "Ain't Nobody's Business," a song that came to be regarded as his signature tune. Witherspoon's style of blues-that of the "blues shouter"-became unfashionable in the mid-1950s, but he returned to popularity with his 1959 album Jimmy Witherspoon at the Monterey Jazz Festival, which features Roy Eldridge, Woody Herman, Ben Webster, Coleman Hawkins, Earl Hines and Mel Lewis, among others Tours and successes. 1957: Goin' to Kansas City Blues (RCA Victor) with Jay McShann. 1959: Battle of the Blues, Vol. 3 (De Luxe). 1959: Feelin' the Spirit (HiFi).

From Mosaic website:"Talk about a forgotten little gem! Jimmy Witherspoon's first full-length album as a leader is a knock-out! Like all great albums, this 1957 date benefits from a confluence of all the right ingredients. The material leans heavily toward immortal Kansas City tunes, made famous by Andy Kirk's Clouds Of Joy with Mary Lou Williams, Joe Turner and Pete Johnson and Jay McShann's band with Walter Brown.The most inspired notion for this album was reuniting Witherspoon with McShann, who gave him his professional start. Budd Johnson provided swinging, understated arrangements and a first-rate New York group (Emmett Berry, J. C. Higginbotham, Hilton Jefferson, Seldon Powell, Al Sears, Kenny Burrell, Gene Ramey and Mousey Alexander) that achieved the tight, joyous feel of Kansas City swing effortlessly.Added to the original album are three more tunes from the session that were later issued on a French RCA LP. For 11 of the 13 tunes, we were able to find stereo masters for the first time."
