Big Joe Turner - Shake, Rattle & Roll

Uploader: weirdovideos
Video Description: Master 'shout blues' artist Big Joe Turner marks another high point of his career here with "Shake, Rattle & Roll."
Although Bill Haley's later sanitized version became a top rock-n-roller hit, it's said many folks sought out Turner's version instead.
A pivotal figure in popularizing blues, jazz, classic R &B, and rock and roll, Turner's career lasted from the 1920's busking on the streets of Kansas City through the 1980's at the most lauded jazz festivals in America and Europe.

Some of Elvis's interpretations (particularly for Sun Records) offered something new, but his RCA R&B covers (including this one, mostly on his first two LPs), were hack jobs, for the most part. This is the real deal.

No disrespect to Big Joe, but Elvis tears this song up. Also, Elvis's band doesn't miss the cue for the solo like these guys do. Still a good performance.

I hate to bust the bubble of ghengis5, but when somebody mentions the song "Shake, Rattle and Roll" Elvis doesn't even come to my mind. I first think of either Big Joe or Bill Hailey and the Comets. I love the King, but sorry Elvis.

I love Elvis, but I note your comments are laced with underlying anger. The fact that gifts of song attributed to Elvis and you see other earlier versions of the same song in no way demeans this version which is superb.

Both Elvis Presley and Big Joe Turner are great! Music is music, color should have nothing to do with who someone listens to! Big Joe's version of this song is my favorite, but I like Elvis' a lot too, especially the guitar solo in it!

I like Elvis also,but I had to learn about blues & R&B from a cover he played...it should be the other way around.

Elvis gained his wealth from remakes of black music.point blank and the general public doesn't have a clue as to who the original artists were and Joe Truner is one of the artist who suffered from a lack of exposure.

This is great, i'd take this over Haley's any day. Although, I prefer Canned Heat's rendition more than any other.
Every single artist ... ( 5 days ago by kcope001)
Every single artist is influenced by others. Of course Elvis was influenced by and copied artists who came before him, black and white. Tell me a black artist that is not influenced by or doesn't copy another artist. There are none. Michael Jackson copied Jackie Wilson, who copied Clyde McPhatter,and so on and so on. Instead of hating on Elvis, why don't we give him some credit for bringing more black music to the wider white audience. 1950's racism was not Elvis' fault, nor was he a racist.
