I may be gettin' corfid-fused here, but was it Georgia Gibbs? This "free range" thinking gets me in trouble.
I know Hank Ballard did Rock With Me Annie, followed by Annie Had a Baby (which didn't set to well w/ the white folks.)
I think that's where Georgia Gibbs came in with the Roll w/ me Henry thing. But Etta James - ooo, my soul (thus sayeth Richard the Little) - a ton of soul even now. I'm glad she regularly plays the House of Blues near Disneyland. When she's there that's where you'll find me.
Listened today to a live cut of Ray Charles "Yes, Indeed" which is about Rock & Roll. The cut was live at Newport Jazz '58, but don't know when the tune was penned.
Good Night Touhy, Farewell Borderstone, Sweet Li'l Miranda, i'm goin' to sleep right now.
