Fuel For Tuesday - "Baby What You Want Me To Do"

Certain songs, for whatever reason, just have an innate quality that help them stand the test of the time.

So can be said about "Baby What You Want Me To Do", originally written by the great Blues musician Jimmy Reed.

ORIGINALLY is the key word there, because since its creation, it has been covered countless times by a wide range of artists.

Erma Franklin took the blues classic and turned it into a funk & soul gem.
Elvis used it to define himself in his '68 Comeback Special TV program. Watching him in the video below...there's no doubt he is...THE KING.
...and the list goes on. The Grateful Dead have covered this song, Johnny and Edgar Winter, and so on, and so forth.

It's good to look back and recognize Jimmy for his contributions to the world of music. A posthumous inductee into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, you owe it to yourself to dig into his collection. (In fact you'll most likely hear a song and have that, "Aha! So this is the guy who originally wrote this song!?" moment)

That said, the videos below prove...you can never have too much of a good thing.

Enjoy, and I'll see you at the office!
