      "Puts ELVIS To shame!!!!!!"
      Mmmm .... Interesting you feel that way because Koko and Etta might say different.
      Etta spoke highly of Elvis (both as a nice guy when she met him, and spoke highly of his singing).
      And KoKo, well, she was an Elvis fan. Part of the reason may be because she & Elvis both have the Memphis connection and they both had some of the same Blues and R&B friends from the area. In The Anti-Freeze Blues Festival in 2002 she specifically dedicated her live version of Hound Dog to both Big Mama & Elvis. And if you are familiar with Big Mama's original version and Koko's (right here) then you would notice that she is paying respect to Elvis in part of this version because she sings the lyrics "Cryin' all the time" and "Never caught a rabbit". Those 2 lines are Elvis's lyrics .... NOT Big Mama's lyrics, she sang it different. But she honored both of them here in this version as well.
      So .... I'm just keeping you honest in case you were just trying to "dis" Elvis.

    • @lilaammons7298
      @lilaammons7298 6 років тому +3

      Hey, it's okay for someone to prefer one singer's version over another's. No "dis" on Elvis. I grew up watching all his movies and was in love with him as a kid. But as an adult, and having now heard the original versions.....I also prefer Big Mama Thornton's version - 'though Elvis had something to say, too. Now, when I see someone with a thumbs down on Big Mama, I kind of shake my head....

      That right. Elvis bridged the gap. In the 1950’s, the White mainstream rejected artists who sounded too black. The producers at Sun records looked for an artist who sounded black--but not too black--to bring a new sound to the White market. It actually brought B and W people together.
