When I was a evening DJ at the radio station, there was some kid that called regularly asking me to play “You Ain’t Nothin’ But A Hound Dog” — by Elvis, I’m sure. That was the only recording we had of it. But, and I didn’t know it at the time, but there were other versions.
I’d like to have had the original version, by Big Mama Thornton, to play. This isn’t the original version, but it is by Big Mama Thornton.
Is there anything you’d like to share? A memory from 40 years ago? A joke? A question? It’s entirely up to you. It’s Tuesday Night Open Thread and your turn to take charge.
Who wants to start?
Not sure I agree with this completely, but it’s food for thought……

C. S. Lewis, the author of the Chronicles of Narnia series and of many other notable books, was born November 29, 1898, in Belfast, Ireland (all of Ireland was part of the United Kingdom at the time). Both he and Aldous Huxley died November 22, 1963, the day that John F. Kennedy was assassinated.
Coincidence? I think not!
