Mean Old World

"Mean Old World" is a blues song recorded by American blues electric guitar pioneer T-Bone Walker in 1942.〔The opening verses appear in Bill Gaither's "Mean Old World to Live In" (1938 Decca 7606); Big Bill Broonzy's "Mean Old World" has different lyrics and arrangement (1937 ARC 7-07-64).〕 It has been described (along with the single's B-side) as "the first important blues recordings on the electric guitar".〔 Over the years it has been interpreted and recorded by numerous blues, jazz and rock and roll artists.
==Original song==
T-Bone Walker began performing "Mean Old World" when he was with Les Hite and His Orchestra from 1939 to 1940.〔
〕 After leaving Hite's band, Walker continued to develop and refine his style on the Los Angeles club circuit. On July 20, 1942, he recorded "Mean Old World" for Capitol Records.〔
〕 The song was performed in the West Coast blues style, with a small combo of pianist Freddie Slack, bassist Jud DeNaut, and drummer Dave Coleman accompanying Walker on vocal and guitar. "Mean Old World" "showcased T-Bones's new, and already developed, style, in which he answered his smoky, soulful vocal phrases with deft, stinging, jazz-inflected lead lines on his electric guitar".〔

Capitol released the song in November 1945, with "I Got a Break, Baby", as the third disc in a five 10-inch record collection "The History of Jazz, Volume 3: Then Came Swing" (Capitol Criterion CE 18).〔
〕 Capitol later issued it as a single in 1947 (Capitol 15003).
Because of a recording ban, T-Bone Walker did not record again until October 10, 1944, for the Rhumboogie label in Chicago.〔
〕 He recorded a variation on "Mean Old World", initially designated "T-Bone Blues No. 2".〔 When Rhumboogie released it in 1946, it was retitled "Mean Old World Blues".〔 It did not feature Walker's guitar as prominently (the backing group, Marl Young's Orchestra, had a five-piece horn section) and some new lyrics were substituted. Walker commented "those sides were not so hot, not as good as the ones in L.A. later. They were big band numbers, more like what I recorded with Hite".〔Dance 1999, page 72.〕 However, the opening verses remained the same:
This anticipated future versions, in which new lyrics would be added to the familiar opening lines. On December 14, 1956, Walker recorded another version for Atlantic Records that was released on the acclaimed 1959 album ''T-Bone Blues''.〔
〕 He is backed by a small combo with Lloyd Glenn on piano, Billy Hadnot on bass, and Oscar Bradley on drums.〔Dance 1999, page 263.〕
