The late, great Clifford Scott ("Scotty") on tenor. I learned that solo years ago--you couldn't work if you didn't know it back then. Never was in his league though. Thanks for posting

@saxforth Man, you got that right. I've been a sax player for over40 years, and I learned the sax solo note for note and must have played it a thousand times with dozens of bands. Back then, we would go see other groups performing at night clubs in the Detroit area and when I sat in, this way always one of the songs we would do. It is pure funk and soul. I still love this song. (I wonder if I could still pay it?!!!)

Man oh man...that defines R&B tenor saxophone. Clifford Scott, Texas tenor man extraordinaire. Rest in peace, Mr. Scott. 1928-1993. Played in Hamp's band before joining Bill Doggett. Man, what a sound, what great ideas. This tune really shows how closely jazz and R&B are related-two sides of the same coin. Thanks a million for posting this!!

great - when I first started playing keyboards in bands in 1963, this was all the guitar players could play - this and Walk Don't Run by the Ventures.

In the 1950's, if you saw a joint or a honky tonk with "Live band" on the markee, the people would stuff wall to wall inside just to be part of the scene ! What a time to
get drunk back then........

Has anone noted how all the great blues & jazz artists (Bill Dogget, Ella, Billie Holiday and Louis) are being used for TV adverts now that they've all past to the world beyond? No money for them then!
Would have been great to have seen the whole jukebok as this was playing. Keeping it on one thing through out the whole video makes it kind of boring. Good song though!

I kept it focused on the mechanism with this particular video,to show how it reverses to play the flip side of the record. My other videos using this same jukebox all have full views of the jukebox.

Great vid! I have the same 45 (original also) in my Q160. I only wish they could have fit parts 1 and 2 on one side. Thanks for posting!

They actually did have part 1 and 2 on one side of a 45 extended play album, which I had never seen before. The guy that owns the pet food store where I shop,just bought the record last week at an estate sale.
