Don & Bob/Yardbirds Version
In 1961, Don Level and Bob Love, as the R&B duo "Don & Bob", recorded a different version of "Good Morning Little Schoolgirl" for Argo Records, a Chess subsidiary. Although it uses the phrase "good morning little schoolgirl", the song has different chord changes and lyrics, including references to popular dance styles of the time. The Yardbirds with Eric Clapton later covered this version of "Good Morning, Little Schoolgirl" for their second UK single in 1964. The song reached #49 in the UK and although the single was not released in the U.S., it was included on the Yardbirds' first American album, For Your Love. A live version of the song was included on Five Live Yardbirds, which featured "Eric and Sam singing together and" lead singer Keith Relf "not singing". The Yardbirds versions were credited to "H.G. Demarais", although some later reissues are credited to Sonny Boy Williamson; the performing rights organization BMI lists the Don & Bob version writers as Level and Love.
