Walking the Dog is the debut studio album by American R&B singer Rufus Thomas from Memphis, Tennessee. It was released in 1963 through Stax Records with distribution by Atlantic . The album peaked at number 138 on the Billboard 200 albums chart in the United States.
A cover of Rufus Thomas' "Walkin' the Dog" is also included, presumably as a nod to the 1973 Aerosmith version. It is also noted for the strong lead guitar presence of guitarist Robbin Crosby, whose trademark "blues with a twist" solos are prominent through the first four songs.
The recording was Aerosmith's second cover of rhythm and blues songs from the early 1950s, having covered "Train Kept A-Rollin'" on its 1974 album, Get Your Wings. [14] They also covered an r&b hit from 1963, "Walking the Dog" by Rufus Thomas on their eponymous debut in 1973. The song received mixed reviews.
