Artist: Dave Bartholomew
Author: Dave Bartholomew
Label: King
Year: 1951

Decent version on Imperial in '52 as My Girl Sings Ding-A-Ling.

Covers:

1954:

Bees [as Toy Bell; production: Dave Bartholomew]

1954:

Spiders [as The Real Thing; produced by Bartholomew]

1958:

Chuck Berry [as My Tambourine; as My Ding-A-Ling n°1 US & UK in '72]

1972:

Miss Chucklecherry [answer song: My Pussycat]

The only recording Chuck Berry wanted to forget he ever made, became his only transatlantic #1. Realising the risk he took recording stuff like this, he named it My Tambourine the first time he cut it.
