“Last Night” #3 8/7/1961

From August 1961, a huge instrumental from the Mar-Keys, the original house band at Stax Records in Memphis. The lineup was rather fluid over the years and included all the members of Booker T. and the MG’s. Part of the reason for the song’s popularity was due to the fact one could “slow twist” to it, and in those days anything to which you could do the Twist was just about automatically a hit.
