I can't get enough of the Ukes.

Stevie Wonder wrote and recorded this one as a teenager.

Covered by various artists, The Jackson Five most notably.

"I Don't Know Why (I Love You)"

But I love the way the Stones did it.

Of note ... the band never released it.

They were in studio mixing this song when news broke Brian Jones was dead.

Later, after the band had left 'em, the record label released it.

One of the most influential covers in the history of contemporary music.

The song is "Good Rockin' Tonight". The year is 1948.

The key here is the beat.

The original, #13 on the R&B charts, by Roy Brown.

The style is big band/jump blues. The beat is swing.
