These songs were originally recorded by Trumpet Records. Boppin' With Sonny comprises the same tracks, with the addition of "Red Hot Kisses" and "Clownin' With The World". Trumpet Masters, Vols. 1-4 are by various artists but include the Sonny Boy sides "Red Hot Kisses" (Vol. 3) and "She's Crazy" and "I'm Not Beggin' Nobody" (Vol. 4).

Many thanks to William E. Donoghue, a.k.a. "'Fessor Mojo", of Seattle, Washington, for providing the album cover.
