A second Mickey & Sylvia studio recording, recorded some years after, featured now-legendary drummer Bernard "Pretty" Purdie on his first paid session gig. Mickey & Sylvia's version was recorded several months later on October 17, 1956. This version was not released until its appearance on I'm a Man: The Chess Masters, 1955–1958 in 2007. The first recorded version of "Love Is Strange" was performed by Bo Diddley, who recorded his version on with Jody Williams on lead guitar. Sylvia Robinson claims that she and Mickey Baker wrote the lyrics, while Bo Diddley claims that he wrote them. "Billy's Blues" was released as a single in June 1956 and the instrumentation combined a regular blues styling with Afro-Cuban styling. Mickey and Sylvia heard Jody Williams play a guitar riff that Williams had played on Billy Stewart's debut single "Billy's Blues".
