356 - Mercury Blues - The CoverUp

A song with roots so hidden, yet so obviously appropriate they never should have been hidden, a big star does a cover no one bothers to forget, and an obvious path from a non-obvious choice. Mercury Blues, Originally by KC Douglas Trio, covered by Alan Jackson and by Meat Loaf.

Outro music is Houd Dog, by Big Mama Thornton — so we get really great bookends on this one.
