Born 1905 and after playing several joints, Arthur Crudup began playing the blues for parties in Clarksdale !!!, Mississippi, in 1939!
One time Crudup was hired to play at a party at Tampa Red's house in 1941, and as a result of that night, he was signed to record for the RCA/Bluebird. In early 1954 he cut his self penned tune called That's Allright Mama. A song that another "well" known artist was given his version of to the world some few month later ;-) This 78 rpm record came from a juke so it's not really Mint, but it rocks, damn for sure....Get bluesin' guy's...this is the REAL Deal!!!
Sun record #209 with Elvis Presley's version can also be heard/seen here at my youtube.....
É curioso ver que a estrutura do blues de raiz foi modificada com os blues man mais contemporaneo. O mais atual é mais quadrado, o anterior era mais inesperado.

Yeow! If not for this song, no Elvis! Awesome! Mr. Crudup, that is way cool.

This is an absolutely beautiful record, I remember listening to it in the Rock and Roll hall of fame in Memphis but, at the risk of leaving myself open to abuse, I think Elvis's version, though copied, is superior, It's like Elvis's version of Apron Strings by Cliff Richard, this is how Richards should have done it, not trying to sound like Elvis who didn't, sound like Richards trying to sound like Elvis if you see what I mean.

He has been called the Father of Rock and Roll because he was the first one to set the blues to a rock and roll beat. At least that's what RCA and Times proclaim...

@LePatay mick jagger is a a great grandfather who still thinks he's 25 yrs old. In other words, he's an antique teenager. I cannot stand him - he's an immoral piece of filth.

Thanks! When was it issued? It was recorded in 1946 according to Wiki. 1949 for the orange 45rpm.I think he did get some money in the end. It's listed as his copyright now.
