Such a great version, Koko Taylor was incredible!!! And the band here is loving this groove and backing one of the all time great blues singers that ever walked this earth. R E S P E C T!

She had been bumped from an earlier show. At the end of _that_ show, the band closed it with “Wang Dang Doodle” rather than its customary “Late Night Theme.” Now that’s respect.

Say what you will about David Letterman, but his choice in musical guests was exquisite.

A tad slower than Koko's own band usually did it, though.

One of the best party songs ever written, by one of the best blues singers *ever*

No doubt it's a fun party song but it's really about supporting labor unions. And given UPS drivers recent victory, I hope she's smiling down. For sure one of the best. ✌

Koko had been bumped four months earlier, on August 11. The band honored her bump by closing the show with “Wang Dang Doodle” instead of its customary Late Night theme.

Did Paul have the band rockin' or what? Koko was a potent performer live. When she sang this as an encore, she could raise the roof and make a stadium feel like a smoky back alley juke joint.

Queen of Malaco Blues ❤ David, Clint Eastwood and Robert Redford had eclectic taste of music in its authenticity. Jazz, Blues, Gospel are the roots to Rock so ENJOY….
