<< I wonder if someone can help me wih some
information. >>
Hi John,
I can't help you specifically with the information but I did see that
Alligator Records (who Hound Dog recorded for) has a website at
www.alligator.com. They have message boards, I'm sure somebody there can help
as Hound Dog was THE cornerstone of Alligator.
According to the liner notes in the Alligator Anniversary CD, Bruce Iglauer,
the founder of Alligator, was passing by where Hound Dog and his band was
playing, Bruce stopped, went in, and was so blown away that he signed the
band on the spot, and started the label with Hound Dog Taylor's release as
his very first record.
Good luck with the search, bro!
Bob
