This is Billies versions of the blues and it too never changed much over the years. I love the way she handles this twelve bar format.

Almost a month after "Your Mother's Son-In-Law", on December 18, 1933, Billie recorded another side (the song was also credited to Buck Washington on the original label) with Benny's studio band to fill another of his Columbia "78" releases [2867-D]. Not until July 1935 did she record again.....
