A brilliant brilliant tune. Reminds me of the white polar neck I used to wear with my chequered zoot suit In Camden Town on rockabilly night. Great memories.!!!

Great up beat songs. Almost or the same beat as Ruth Brown. I love that kind of music. Some people could really dance to it.

[Crimsonvata]

You ever think a song (like this) was awesome, but, you just can't think of anything particularly useful to add to the conversation?

[kingbushwickthe33rd]

Underrated little R&B Gem from the 50's!!

big Joe turner;Johnny Cash and all the Rockabilly cats and R&B Shouters

from the 50's rule!!

Pat Boone sucks donkeys!!

[MKalashnikov1947]

Heard this song on the radio a few weeks ago and have been trying to figure out what it was since then! Thanks!

[AnthonysDen]

A happy centennial birthday to Big Joe Turner, who would've turned 100 years young this day of May 18, 2011! Even in another hundred years from now, people will be remembering (as well as singing & dancing to) this great tune, among many others this talented performer had done!

[MiniMousePoo2]

THX(XnotC)

[tkeitez66]

I was introduced to this song in 1955 when my cousin was playing 78s (anybody remember those BIG records) and this one blew me away then and it still does today. This is MY SONG and done by MY MAIN MAN of Rhythm & Blues (R & B) & Rock N Roll both. Big Joe Turner will always be the BOSS MAN OF THE BLUES.

[dwoodward1]

I love it when people sing this song at Karaoke. Obviously not as good as Big Joe, but they are usually true fans, and very passionate about this song.

[Adjabeko]

I could just imagine Brian Setzer and his Orchestra doin his version of this classic, just like he dida great version of Loui Prima's Jump Jive and Wail

[Randhawa7654321]

i have just became a joe turner fan i am 11 years old we came back from camping and on the radio i heard this song this is what made me a fan of mr.Turner and i will keep being a fan of this cause "i dont care if i die! oh my!"

[richythebluesman]

@Randhawa7654321 You are an awesome 11 year old, 14 YO @ the time I wrote this. Keep digging into the roots, you will find a very deep crop of great music, the origin of most music we hear today

[Weidenberg]

Joe Turner and Bill Haley first met in the fifties and became close friends. Joe did several shows with Bill & the Comets in Sydney in 1957.

[kark56cc]

Best singer I've ever heard!

I'm flying from UK to the Southern states for 3 weeks. Where can I hear the best of this type of music?

I play Joe's stuff daily but would love to hear something similar in the place where real music started.

[Dreambro1]

I noticed everyone compares this song to shake rattle n roll LOL,,,,there was probably hundreds of songs with that same sound,, but shake rattle and roll was the first to hit the Main stream lol,,,as in white crowd lol

[wurlitzer1450]

Great record from a great performer! Flip Flop & Fly is the answer record to Shake Rattle & Roll. Sag Drag & Fall is the answer record to Flip Flop & Fly. I can see the black & yellow Atlantic label record spinning when I listen to this.

[HermanAfca]

1589

[57chryslerpush]

someone please tell me what year this was made

[robrio1]

1956

[cuff57]

[pezaddict821]

Sweet song. The Blues Brothers also covered this song, and did a great job with it.

[THEORIGINALMOJOMAN]

AND NOW KIDDIES YOU CAN ORDER THIS RECORD FROM "BUCKLEYS" REM. THAT ON W.L.A.C. and THEHOSSMAN BILL ALLEN,GENE NOBLES,JOHN "R"

[southie231]

I was told he couldn't read music, but that he could hear a song once and shout out his version better than any other. GO JOE!!
