single, 1952
Written by Ahmet Ertegün
This is an uptempo boogie, the titular Miss Fannie's charms chanted with enthusiasm and verve: "You'll become my heart's disease / Listen to me, baby, please / You got me just mad for you." At the center is Buddy Bailey's lead vocal, balancing pleading and swagger in equal measure as the rest of the group answers with tight harmonies. They're backed by a rolling piano and bursts of honking saxophone, creating a sound that's fairly fast rock and roll for 1952.
