Just read that today in history Feb 18, 1959, Ray Charles recorded What'd I Say. If I remember correct, this topped Roger's 1959 battle. Hard to believe it's been 65 years ago.

There have always been a few people here who will vote for anything doo-wop
over anything else.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0oS2De8O8D0

for me at least, both these classic songs are kinda dull compared to
these two groovers from 1959:
Bo Diddley - Crackin' Up
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Si8lZf6CQ7M
Chuck Berry - Little Queenie
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5tuQuLl0tic

and for the more sophisticated, there's:
Sarah Vaughan - Smooth Operator
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0LemzWUvWAU

well, as they say, each to their own (taste in music)
