The story I have heard/read about Juke is that it was simply a jam that
the band used as a break lead-in. Little Walter originally called it
something like "Your Cat Will Play". He reportedly got the theme from
something that Sunnyland Slim was doing. The rhythm "irregularities" are
simply mistakes.Is all that true? Dunno. I do know this, though. George
Smith felt no compulsion to duplicate the "mistakes". He straightened it
out and kicked some serious butt in the process. Here's a youtube link:
