"Hound Dog" was written by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller and originally recorded by Big Mama Thornton in 1952 (and released in 1953). The song was later slightly altered and recorded by Freddie Bell and the Bellboys in 1955. Elvis Presley recorded and released his version of the song in 1956. He is often, incorrectly, credited with being the originator of the song and the Rock and Roll sound. • • • I do not own the rights to this clip. • • • • • #bigmamathornton #hounddog #jerryleiber #mikestoller #freddiebell #freddiebellandthebellboys #elvispresley #elvis #songcover #songcovers #vocals #singers #soul #rnb #rocknroll #rock #rockmusic #blues #guitar #music #livevocals #livemusic #soulmusic #hiphopsoul #throwback #womenshistory #womenshistorymonth #blackhistory https://www.instagram.com/p/CcLlfJLu0fN/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
