Ain't Got No Home/ Troubles, Troubles

This 1956 classic was Clarence "Frog Man" Henry's first and, some think, best single, which Dave Marsh includes at #665 in his list of the 1,001 greatest singles of Rock'n'Soul. This is, after all, the song that gives meaning to his nickname, as he demonstrates that he really "Can sing like a girl, and ... like a frog!" Note that this was a non-album single; Henry's only Argo album was in 1961. Note: It's hard to find this Argo label in Near Mint condition, but the A side of this copy comes very close (see scan). The vinyl is somewhat scuffed-up, grading only EX, and the audio has notable surface noise, grading a strong VG.
