BTW; That Perkins tune at the top was an add on to the last two of yours on the previous page. Not sure if you caught that or not. Whitefang

Actually think either the latter came first and the lyrics in the Bland vocal version came later or vice-versa. Can't think of any right at the moment, but there are several times an instrumental tune became popular and sometime later someone added lyrics and a melody to it. And sometimes changed the title too. But not always. And too the reverse was done. I always thought Bobby Bland was an odd name for him as there was nothing bland about his sound and style. Whitefang

At closer investigation:
The Joe Scott instrumental: 'Soul Stretch',was recorded in Nashville,TN on April 22,1964.It would end up on 'The Soul of The Man' - Duke LP79 (1966).
'Reach Right Out' stems from a February 9-10,1965 recording sesion in Chicago,IL.

Muddy Waters/Mannish Boy('54) Chuck Berry/No Money Down('55) And there's probably more than a dozen or two blues tunes with the same similarity Whitefang
