    You're losing it, guv'nuh.

    Did you forget that it was first released as a single in 1953 backed with "Heartbreaker?"

    An excellent blues song if you follow the moving lyrics.

    Sorry memory lapse---yes of course it appeared as Atlantic 1008 in September 1953. Recorded a month earlier in New Orleans with backing from Edgar Blanchard's band.Thanks for the correction

    What about the Sha-Weez?

    Yes,in November 1952 the Sha-Weez vocal group (there's a good write-up on them by the ever reliable Unca Marvy here)

    https://www.uncamarvy.com/Shaweez/shaweez.html

    recorded four songs in New Orleans for Aladdin. Two were issued early in 1953 "No One To Love Me"/"Early Sunday Morning". That release was all the world ever heard from their session until.....

    The early 70's----when amidst the flood of r&b vocal group "repro" singles now being pressed up in peoples bathrooms on the US east coast----an "Aladdin 45rpm single" appeared of the remaining two Sha-Weez tracks--"You Made Me Love You"/"Feelimg Sad".

    And a pretty good version it was too. Here it is (and its a 7 on my 1952 list)

    Pretty good, yes. A 6 for me, would have benefitted from a nice
    instrumental break.
