1939. Big Joe Turner & Pete Johnson.

I'm no blues man but love this song so much I just wanted to have a crack at it. My favourite version of this is actually from Dr Bekken ( who is also a member here) from his album 'The Naked Blues' where he does a smokin piano arrangement of the song.

Anyhow this is my uke version, dodgy white-boy style :eek:

Thankyou Stan, rosceaux and cb. I really appreciate the encouragment fellas. Thought I perhaps should have waited a week or two and got the feel of it better but I have a terribly short attention span and no patience to boot... :eek:

Nice Pineapple. Do ya wanna trade? I'll pay shipping.
Where did you video this? Your property/home looks incredible.

that was bluesy and soulful.
Not bad for a dodgy white-boy.
 
From another (failed)white boy blueser,
that was bloody terriffic!!!!!
 
Verdict in- dodgy white boy style right to the head of the class...and a Big Joe tune- excellent stuff
 
Thanks, Jon, for yet another wonderful song. This one is new to me. Thanks for sharing it with us!!
