That's my favorite tune on the record.
After the initial 16 tracks
were recorded in Port au Spain, Trinidad, with legendary Calypso arranger Art DeCoteau, I brought the tapes back to the US and
expanded the production to 24 tracks at Caribou Ranch.

I've always loved the music of New Orleans, in particular the saxophone solos on the Little Richard recordings.
Lee Allen (walkin w Mr. Lee) played many of the best, and I brought in my friend R.T. Bolden to put a Lee Allen style flavor into what I intended to be the
last track on the record. I tried to get a happy & carefree feeling into that solo, which would signify Rocky dancing out of the tune.
