Big Joe Turner was Rhythm and Blues, the precursor of Rock and Roll. I listened to all of the greats, long before it was the popular thing to do. Loved Ike and Tina, Lavern Baker, Ruth Brown, and all the 50's R&B singers. Big Joe Turner was one of my favorites.

Thank to You Tube for keeping this great music alive. I never get tired of listening to it since 1952.

Well heck! I feel like a total bag of freezer rice not knowing this tune was by Big Joe instead of the Johnny Burnett Trio. I'm not completely surprised of course, just feel stupid. I like both versions nonetheless and also Elvis Costello's version.

Doesnt this technicaly predate anything that became known as Rock and Roll? I think Big Joe was the pioneer of rock.

@bwd81977 He indeed was the pioneer. Doesn't get enough credit for his contributions. That's why his songs are up here. So many future artists covered his songs.
