Chicken Songs
The “bird” theme continues on this week’s Podcast with songs about “Chickens”. These songs are about chickens as birds, as food and also the dance. You’ll hear groovy tunes by Cab Calloway, Amos Milburn, Lighnin’ Slim and The Rolling Stones.
This week’s Cat Fight is between Howlin’ Wolf and Sam Cooke over the classic blues tune, “The (Little) Red Rooster”. Dig on the show and then vote for your favorite version below.

I voted for Wolf. I like his bluesy version more than Cooke’s swingsy one.
It had go to the Wolf, he owns that song. Man, I may have to go get a bucket tonight, I’m hungry. Great show!
Wow! Great cat fight Matt! In the end I have to go with the Wolf Man! But the Same Cooke version was pretty good. But in the end I gotta go with the great “CHESS” label!! A whole show about “CHICKEN” songs. Only MTC could come up with this!!
