Cool version, originally by the Clovers in 1951 I think.

If you listen close you will hear Ray say "Just a little bit of soda", appropriate since a mint julep is made with "a little bit of soda". At least that is the way it was all explained to me years ago. Have to admit, though, listening through headphones at high volume it could just as easily be "a little bit of sould, now". But I'll stick with "soda"

That record is playing fast, it must be a 78 rpm.

BTW, Ray Charles did a excellent version of "One Mint Julep" in a big band style kinda way. That song came out in the early 60's.

You gotta love the organ part of the song and Ray Charles says "Just a little bit of soul now!"
