Last week, NewEpicAuthor over at A Unique Title For Me set a theme of cake (my selection). This week, we are talking about the same difference.

Gonna stretch the theme a little this week, because my choice’s title is the same word, repeated. Do you fancy some Blues?
This song was written and recorded by John Lee Hooker, in 1961. Although the song has become synonymous with Hooker, it was panned at the time by music critics. It was a lukewarm chart hit, reaching only #60 on the Billboard Hot 100. It did, at least, reach #16 on the R&B Chart. In fact, this song was Hooker’s only Hot 100 hit. It must have had something, though, because it was recorded by many artists and was a staple cover for many Blues bands in the early Sixties.
The song went international a full three decades later. Picked up by a jeans commercial, the song was released in the UK and reached #16 here. Here’s Boom Boom.
That featured image, by the way, is me. Early Nineties/mid-twenties, on the steps of Sacre Coeur basilica in Paris, and the guy on the tee…John Lee Hooker. Don’t I look young?
Boom, boom, boom, boom

Knock you off of your feet
And take you home with me
Put you in my house
Boom, boom, boom, boomOw ow ow ow ow

Up and down the floor

Walk that walkWon’t you walk that walk?
And talk that talk
And whisper in my ear
