Arthur Alexander's very first single on Judd Phillips' label, brother of Sun boss Sam Phillips. Arthur admitted the riff came from Brook Benton's Kiddio. Coauthor Tom Stafford along with Rick Hall and Billy Sherrill, was co-founder of the FAME studio in Florence, Alabama (Florence Alabama Music Enterprices), where Arthur 'June' Alexander soon recorded his (and Fame's) first real hit (see: You Better Move On).
Covers:
Mark 5 [similar riff in instrumental Night Rumble]
