Good to hear a great Feminine version of this Classic. A greatm one too.

I love to listen to Jerry Lee's version, BUT IMO this is even better.

[Hutzjohn]

Damn she was awesome! and quite nice looking to.

@TheNoodlePan The origins of the song are disputed, but the writing is co-credited to African American singer/songwriter Dave "Curlee" Williams, and white pianist, bandleader and songwriter James Faye "Roy" Hall (May 7, 1922 - March 2, 1984).[1] On March 21, 1955, Big Maybelle made the first recording for Okeh Records; it's produced by the young Quincy Jones.

@Hutzjohn Wasn't this done by Big Maybelle before Jerry covered it?

[Hutzjohn]

She gives ole Jerry Lee a run for his money and I'm not convinced he wins.

I love the UNoverdubbed long version The King did.

@TheDJGrandPa lol i was a bit confused when you said r&b. it clears it up a bit now that you said Jackie Wilson etc. boogie woogie is such an old dance move. my life is really defined by 1930s and 1940s jazz music. and the beatles...aerosmith...rebel bands.

[TheDJGrandPa]

@MYheroMJrip I guess we did... I could go on for hours about this, it's my life :P

F**k no I don't mean R&B from now. I don't even call that R&B, no, the originals! Hank Ballard, the Dominoes, Jackie Wilson etc. Boogie Woogie sounds funny? I think it sounds great :P

@TheDJGrandPa we filled up at least 50% of all the comments for this video. boogie -woogie sounds funny. who's a hot artist for that genre i can check out? you listen to R&B from now you mean?

[TheDJGrandPa]

@MYheroMJrip Nope I don't like em. Used to.... I guess I kinda replaced them with 30's-early 50's Blues, Jazz, Big Band, Boogie Woogie, R&B and the likes :)
