"That's All Right Mama" by Arther 'Big Boy' Crudup

KOSMO's VINYL of the Week:
"That's All Right Mama" by Arthur 'Big Boy' Crudup, from 1946 on RCA Victor (original version can be found on the "Roots Of Presley" CD)...

"Elvis Presley would have been 11 years old when Arthur 'Big Boy' Crudup recorded "That's All Right" in Chicago in 1946. How could Arthur have had any idea that 8 years later, a 19-year-old white boy from Tupelo, Mississippi would record a version in Memphis that would shake up the whole world! The song was first introduced to me by Rod Stewart on his "Every Picture Tells A Story" LP in 1971 - stick with Arthur or Elvis." - KV
