I haven't seen it lately, but T-Mobile with the gal on the pink motorcycle was using the title track from this CD. Over and over as I heard the smooth guitar and vocals I had to research it. And sure enough Eilen... Too bad Bill's not playing it here...
Wanda Jackson (with Jack White) does this on her new album. She's nearly 80 and still bringin' it.
Uploaded, sorried. BTW.
I have a thin-sounding crappy MP3 bootleg of the Jet Black Berries doing it too. That's my favorite. At least the version as heard on vinyl some years ago
Spot on! It just sounds too "clean". A bit like an aunt singing it at a family do.
An aunt with a great voice, sure. But Wanda Jackson has the bad-girl cred, and that patented 'quiver' in her voice, to put her performance head and shoulders above all the rest.

Great tune: that guitar lick is iconic. Eilen Jewell does a great job, but after seeing Ms. Jackson rip into it, it seems like Ms. Jewell's version is too clean.

I would love to hear what I think was the original version by Johnny Kid and the Pirates. Duane Eddy is a great follow up! The Humble Pie Rockin the Filmore version of I Don't Need No Doctor or Hallelujah would also be great....just sayin'
Half-listening I thought this sounded familiar! We just saw Eilen at the Johnstown, PA music festival in August 2010. She puts on a great show, is very personable and very talented. Had a great time. If you have the chance, check 'em out. You won't regret it.
