Back to sharing the Five On Friday sets come from my friend TRAVIS FROM TRAV'S THOUGHTS

Real simple pick five songs...pick a topic, pick a theme (or are they the same?) anyway...every so often Travis will give us a challenge...but most weeks, it is share five songs that may or may not have something in common.

This week...the wonderful Willie Dixon Song Little Red Rooster as performed by Howlin' Wolf, who did it first and, IMHO the best version.

The song has been done by many over the years...I selected The Rolling Stones, Big Mama Thornton, Tom Petty and the incredible Sam Cooke for your listening enjoyment.

Oh and, Howlin' Wolf's original The Red Rooster is included in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's list of the "500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll"

ENJOY AND HAVE A GRAND WEEKEND!
