I like the song Fever. I’ve heard it punk, country, Americana, jazz, and psychedelic rock and roll, and it holds up. Blackwell wrote it (with Eddie Cooley), along with many other rock and R & B hits: All Shook Up, Daddy Rollin’ Stone, Great Balls of Fire, Don’t Be Cruel, Handy Man, Return to Sender (I love that song), Searchin’, Let’s Talk About Us, Breathless, and Hey Little Girl—those are just the songs on this record. There was a tribute album for Blackwell released in 1994. Among the artists recording a song for it were Dave Edmunds, Kris Kristofferson, Debbie Harry, the Smithereens, Tom Verlaine, Graham Parker, and Ronnie Spector.
