18. You’ve Got Your Good Thing Down - Sir Douglas Quintet  (mid sixties)
19. Choo Choo Ch’Boogie - Louis Jordan  1946
 
Theme song: Small Town Talk - Bobby Charles 
 
You reach your destination, but alas and alack
You need some compensation to get back in the black
You take a morning paper from the top of the stack
And read the situations from the front to the back
The only job that's open needs a man with a knack
So put it right back in the rack, Jack
 
From ‘Choo Choo Ch’Boogie’ - Louis Jordan And His Tympany Five - 1946
Written by Denver Darling, Milton Gabler and Vaughn Horton.
Every line of every verse in this clever song ends in a word that rhymes with Jack.
 
A few notes this episode to compensate for the lack of song introductions.
Track 7: Pneumonia - Joe Tex. On the label the writing credits go to Joe Tex, but this song is clearly a facsimile of Little Willie John’s ‘Fever’, written by Eddie Cooley and Otis Blackwell under his songwriting alias of John Davenport.
Track 8: Come In The Morning - written by Bob Mosley and the terrific B side of Hey Grandma (see episode 29)  It was one of 5 Moby Grape singles released simultaneously, a move that backfired and contributed to the band’s downfall.
Track 14: Home Home Home - Pokey LaFarge - written and originally recorded by Ken Boothe in 1967 and produced by Clement "Coxone" Dodd. Pokey's version is from his new album "Rhumba Country"
Track 15: Famously recorded by the Beatles on their second album ‘With The Beatles’ and sung by George Harrison. The Donays’ original was the flipside of their only single ‘Bad Boy’ and was never a hit either in the States or the UK. Small Town Talk played Bad Boy in our Two Songs, One Title feature in episode 18, Oct 2021.
Track 16: I’m Calling You - The Cactus Blossoms - for Andrea who cemented the idea of Two Songs, One Title and since she loves the Everlys she will probably like this!
Track 18: You’ve Got Your Good Thing Down - Sir Douglas Quintet. Only released later on several compilation albums, but recorded by producer Huey Meaux, The Crazy Cajun, for Tribe records sometime in the mid sixties. In my book Doug Sahm can do no wrong.
