ey, it's songday. I pick a song that I believe warrants it and publish an assortment of the covers of that song by various persons and or groups. Pick a few that are new to you and have a listen. It is also, of course, an open thread to talk about anything you feel like. Hey its Saturday, so kick back,...
Today's song is: Ain't (or Tain't) Nobody's Business
Originally by Anna Meyers and Original Memphis Five, but I can't find a recording
