It was my father's Sunday gosbel.But, I give it to Jimmy Smith with his crew. I subsequently heard Jimmy Smith version late in 70's or early in the 80's I was attached. If I listened to it I just go back in time in my youthful days. And, I say "akukho sigxhobo saguga namaxholo also." Great music is shall will always be timeless.

i don't like covers usually, and is a Bill Doggett song of the top order, but this has to rank as one of the best covers ever. Y'all talk about Frank, Herman and Terry - all fabulous to be sure - but surely Jimmy himself should get some big atta-boys for not getting in the way of his stellar back-up band, while providing metered and consistent back up to their genius. says so much about him as a person, not trying to grab the glory just because it is his band. love it!!!

This beat started a Dance Craze in Houston and Dallas in 1958. Every body started dancing to the half-beat to this song turning jitterbug into a new dance called the Whip in Houston, and the Push in Dallas, There was an annual Dance Contest between the Cities as to who had the best Dancers. It happens still to this day. Not from those cities but from all over the South. I went to a Contest in Bossier City at the Horseshoe Casino in 2004. The Next was in Houston in 2005. Lost Contact Since Then.

This is definitely the great Herman Riley on sax. He was Jimmy's horn player of choice for the last two decades of his life. They were like brothers, and Herman passed not long after Jimmy did. Herman was one of the humblest, kindest men I've ever known. Terry Evans, also featured here, was the only guitarist Jimmy trusted with the iconic Billy Butler guitar phrasing. This band recorded the song as a tribute to Bill Doggett on the CD "Prime Time" not long after the R&B organist's death.
