Marcia Griffiths' cover of Electric Boogie, originally done in 1976 by Bunny Wailer. The electric slide line dance was made for this song.
The Fats Domino cover of Blueberry Hill, originally by The Sammy Kaye Orchestra with vocals by Tommy Ryan. The song was recorded by many acts before Fats put a rock & roll feel to it.
