This song, considered the "first record of rock and roll", was deemed taboo because of its "suggestive" lyrics. However, it reached no. 1 on the R&B charts in early 1951 and stayed there for 30 weeks. It's also probably the first R&B song to crossover to the pop charts where it went to no. 1 and stayed there for 23 weeks. "Sixty minute man" was voted song of the year for 1951.

This version was edited for a King records compilation that came out in 1971, actually celebrating the 20th anniversary of this song.
