    Holy Moly the harmony from these legendary sisters, Ruth's voice is a gift from the gods. Nasty, sultry and sassy like funk ought to be. Most male singers would kill for resonance like hers. That 4 layered chorus at the end was a clinic in harmony.

    Contralto eldest sister Ruth leading the eff outta this!!! Wish I wasn’t born in the 90’s so I could’ve experienced music like this live. 🔥

    Nasty, grimey, low down, dirty & funky. Perfection. Ruth would sing lead on all their records if it were up to me.

    As strong to listen to as I as a little teenager bought the album made by these amazing sisters - and so after the f-ing 40 years or so - there´s more than old blues guys.

    The original by Allen Toussaint is also on YT under the title "Goin' Down" and is also fantastic.

    My tail is between my legs. Tom Salisbury is on piano, not Leon Russell as I posted earlier. Tom also can be found on many other great recordings, Van Morrison's Saint Dominic's Preview, to name one. Sorry for any confusion my original post may have caused. Thanks for the corrections.

      Leon Russell was a bad man. And you're right, he touched every damn good thing to come out for at least a decade or more.
      Folks don't realize how awesome that dude was.

      Where'd you get that info? I think it's Tom Salisbury on this record. I love Leon, but can't find information about him being on this one.

      @@tomspiano1 Forgive me Tom Salisbury. My apologies to you and other readers. Indeed, the piano credit (along with arranger credit) belongs to you assuming you are the same TS. I'm not sure where I got the idea about Leon Russell. I'm guessing I looked it up somehow online. I used to own this cut on the album "Steppin." But I regrettably let go of my vinyl collection years ago during a difficult move. I will update my comment.
