"Mess Around", written by Atlantic Records president and founder Ahmet Ertegün under the pseudonym of "A. Nugetre", was one of Ray Charles’ first hits. Earlier versions of the tune, a New Orleans boogie piano riff, can be heard throughout the early 30s and 40s the earliest of all being "Cow Cow Blues" from Charles "Cow Cow" Davenport in 1928.
