The single is his version of the song written by one of the Crescent City’s favourite sons, the late Allen Toussaint, and first recorded by Ernie K-Doe in 1970. That recording won a new audience, especially in the UK, when it was used in advertising campaigns by retailers Boots in 2007 and 2008.

Here’s a short trailer for the album, which is the follow-up to 2013’s Say That To Say This, the last of Trombone Shorty’s three albums for Verve:
