The Mar-Keys: Last Night

Square

From 1961, this is one of those instrumentals that you think you’ve heard a thousand times. You probably have if you were a fan of the comedy series Bottom, whose closing credits featured a version by the Bum Notes. The legendary axeman Steve Cropper was in the Mar-Keys but plays organ on this track because the producer Chips Moman didn’t want guitar on it.
