Artist: Jackie Wilson
Author: Lena Agree
Label: Brunswick
Year: 1960
B-side of Night. Lena Agree was an aunt of Jackie's manager Nat Tarnopol. Credits really should have gone to Alonzo Tucker (ex The Royals), who co-wrote more Jackie Wilson hits (Baby Workout). Tucker sang Doggin' Around years before Jackie first recorded it.
Covers:
Klique [as Stop Doggin' Me Around; the voice of Howard Huntsberry sounds exactly like Jackie Wilson's]
Not to be confused with the jazz standard Doggin' Around, cut in the thirties by Count Basie and in the sixties by Zoot Sims.
