George Thorogood recorded "One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer" for his 1977 debut album, George Thorogood and the Destroyers. His version is a medley of a blues song written by Rudy Toombs and recorded by Amos Milburn in 1953 and a 1950 John Lee Hooker song, "House Rent Boogie", which serves as a backstory to explain the singer's situation. According to Hooker, "He [Thorogood] told me he was gonna do that [and] I said, 'Okay, go ahead'".
Here's a live version of George with guest Elvin Bishop.
