Corrine Corrina - 12-Bar Blues Song - Performed by Dave Alexander - Big Texas Western Swing Band. In the style of Bob Wills and the Texas Playboys.
Dave and his Big Texas Western Swing Band this clip was recorded May 6, 2011 at the First State Bank Center for the Performing Arts in Gainesville, Texas on the NCTC campus.
\"Corrine, Corrina\" is a 12 bar country blues song in the AAB form. \"Corrine, Corrina\" was first recorded by Bo Chatmon (Brunswick 7080, December 1928). However, it was not copyrighted until 1932 by Chatmon and his publishers, Mitchell Parish and J. Mayo Williams. The song is familiar for its opening verse;
Corrine, Corrina, where you been so long?
Corrine, Corrina, where you been so long?
I ain't had no lovin', since you've been gone.
Prior to World War II, Bob Wills adapted \"Corrine, Corrina\" to a Western swing dance song. Following his recording with The Texas Playboys on April 15, 1940, the song entered the standard repertoire of all Western swing bands, influencing the adoption of \"Corrine, Corrina\" by Cajun bands and later by individual country artists.
\"His many fans already know this, but for those who don't, Dave Alexander is the real deal, the genuine article when it comes to the unique brand of music known as Texas swing, A three-time Grammy nominee, Dave and his band are top-drawer professionals on a par with groups like Asleep at the Wheel—which, by the way, Dave often appears with and performs.\"
