School Girl

from Colorado Blues · host Colorado Blues

Good Morning Little School Girl is such a fun song -- Ruth Israel & Her Band had a really fun time rehearsing this last Friday @ Shadow Mountain Rehearsal Studio -- we hope you enjoy !! TURN IT UP !!! Good Morning Little School Girl origins -- Sonny Boy Williamson recorded "Good Morning, School Girl" in 1937 during his first recording session for Bluebird Records. The song is an uptempo blues with an irregular number of bars. Although identified with Chicago blues, a write-up in the Blues Hall of Fame notes "it was a product of Sonny Boy’s west Tennessee roots and his pre-Chicago ensemble work". The melody has been traced to “Back and Side Blues”, a 1934 blues song recorded by Son Bonds. "Good Morning, School Girl" features Williamson's vocal and harmonica with accompaniment by Big Joe Williams and Robert Lee McCoy (also known as Robert Nighthawk) on guitars.
