So it was already a very popular record when Haley released his version in July of that same year.

Congratulations for this very entertaining and informative site!

I’m a huge blues fan and all this 12-bar goodness is just incredible. The Beatles were incredibly versatile. And I love me some fifth Beatle, Billy Preston!

I just have to thank you Joe for everything you’ve done on this magnificent site. Thank you.
