RIDE!, Dee Dee Sharp (1962) Before going solo at 17, Dee Dee Sharp provided vocal backup for recordings by Lloyd Price, Frankie Avalon, Fabian, Bobby Rydell, Jackie Wilson, and Chubby Checker (Pony Time). Sharp’s song made it to No. 5 on the charts. (BTW, pony was hokum for something else.)

Bring It On Home, Sonny Boy Williamson II (1963) This classic was written by Willie Dixon and recorded in 1963 (with Matt “Guitar” Murphy) but wasn’t released until three years later. Led Zeppelin covered the song on their album Led Zeppelin II (1969). In 2017 Randy Newman wrote Sonny Boy, a song about Rice Williams’ theft of the original Sonny Boy Williamson’s identity.

LA Priest (aka Sam Dust, aka Sam Eastgate) found some electrical outlets in the Mexican jungle to play Carribean techno space lounge music.
The Growlers had some fun with a dark subject.
Enough of that oddness. Time for some jaw-dropping high speed electric bluegrass hollerin’ cowpunk, and Sunday Valley fits the bill. The band is defunct, but Sturgill Simpson is still kicking it… somewhere.
Well looky here. It’s the weekend again, so have a great one and we’ll see you back here tomorrow.
