    This catchy R&B song was first recorded by Arthur Alexander in 1962 as the B-side of You Better Move On. Written by Terry Thompson in the US south. It was not a hit or well known, but musicians picked it up and liked it. I don’t know that it has ever been a hit for anyone, but to me it is. Selections: 1) Arthur Alexander 1962 2) Chad Allen and the Expressions – 1964. of Winnipeg Canada, after changing their name from CA + The Reflections, and before becoming The Guess Who. 3) Clyde McPhatter – 1966 Amy label single. a potential hit if circumstances had been right. The Guess Who song is on the Shakin All Over album. Clyde’s Amy recordings were recently reissued.

Elvis made his national network television debut, on CBS, 28 January 1956. This performance on Ed Sullivan’s top rated Sunday night variety show, The Toast of the Town, predates Elvis by 2 months! And, you thought Elvis was shocking. . . all I can say is wail, man, wail! Here it is – WWRL’s star disc jockey Tommy “Dr. Jive” Smalls presents rhythm & blues to a mass white audience, in prime time! For much more on Dr. Jive: www.nydailynews.com I have seen some of this on YouTube but, NEVER the whole clip, as presented here. There is, however, a couple of glitches in this video but, I felt that this clip needed to be presented. Not only is it entertaining, it is historic, as well.
