Good Rockin’ Tonight (Brown) by Wynonie Harris
Written and first recorded by Roy Brown in 1947, this historic rock ‘n roll precursor, as performed by Wynonie “Mr. Blues” Harris, spent 25 weeks on the rhythm & blues sales and jukebox charts, peaking at #1 on both. Harris had sung with the Lucky Millinder band prior to leading his own group on a series of popular late-40s R&B hits. In 1954 Elvis Presley would famously record “Good Rockin’ Tonight” for his second Sun label single.
