Aaron Thibeaux Walker—the "T-Bone" is a corruption of Thibeaux—was born in 1910 in Linden, Texas. Under the name Oak Cliff T-Bone, he recorded his first tracks in 1929 for Columbia Records and can be regarded as the first electric bluesman, a great influence on the likes of B.B. King, Robert Cray and Stevie Ray Vaughn amongst many others (even Chuck Berry admits to being influenced). His original recording of "Three Corn Patches" was part of his 1973 album, "Very Rare" (Reprise 2XS 6483), which was produced by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, who also wrote three of the ten tracks on the album.
T-Bone died in 1975. The last Leiber-Stoller number Elvis recorded in a studio?
