In 1952, he entered the armed services and teamed up with Johnny Ace Revue after his discharge. His first hit, "It's My Life Baby," was released in 1955, trailed by years of success in the R&B arena under the Duke Records label. In the 50s and early 60s, Bobby Blue Bland was one of the primary influencers of the modern soul-blues sound. His soul-blues style was marked with a big-band sound all its own.
