“[Big Mama Thornton] was a wonderful blues singer, with a great moaning style. But it was as much her appearance, as her blues style that influenced the writing of ‘Hound Dog’ and the idea that we wanted her to growl it.” – Mike Stoller, on writing Hound Dog Taylor for Big Mama Thornton

In April of 1930, blues great Charley Patton released two singles, "Lord I'm Discouraged" on the A side, and "I'm Goin' Home" on the B side of a vinyl record. It was released on the fabled Paramount Records.

This design is directly from the label of the rare vinyl record. The light version is printed in navy blue, and the dark version is printed in grey/silver.

Goin' home, goin' home, goin' home
If I never, never see you anymore
I'm goin' home, goin' home, goin' home
I'll meet you on that other shore
