 | | Prysock turned professional upon his demobilization in 1947 and joined Tiny Grimes' Rocking Highlanders, with whom he recorded for the fledgling Atlantic Records. |
 | | Prysock formed his own band in 1953, after experimenting with three releases on Bobby Robinson's Red Robin label, and was signed by Mercury Records the following year, for whom he notched up many big sellers, among them "Hand Clappin'", "Jump, Red, Jump" and "Finger Tips". |
 | | He played with the Alan Freed Big Band, backing all the top rock 'n' roll artists of the 50s, and was able to switch styles with the advent of soul music in the 60s, recording for King and Chess and supporting many of the era's big names. |
