That's right, that's the only one I ever heard growing up, then I looked into it.
Had no idea though that Fats did it, I'll have to google it.
Yeah, Ray Charles called Elvis a 'punk' lol in an interview I saw.
I'm pretty sure Fats did the first recording.
He was fantastic, all those guys were.
And I didn't know about Otis Blackwell, whose style Elvis copied, didn't know he wrote some of Elvis's early stuff.

Internet is amazing.
There are all sorts of people who decry the internet's existence (while using it) and it strikes me as a bit absurd.
They're not obligated to visit any particular sites. They can find a community for anything they can think of. They don't even need to use traditional social media. They could be completely passive consumers and have more video on YouTube than they can watch in their lifetime.
Hell, more video gets uploaded to YouTube in a day than you can watch in a lifetime.
Never heard of him, he sang it the way Elvis did, or did Elvis sing it the way he did?
