Auger is an organist of legend, and his rocking Hammond B3 playing drives this track into the stratos-mod-o-phere for an unrelenting 3:18, including an organ solo that's one of the finest ever played on the instrument. It may be a bit corny, but I love the faux-party sounds happening on the intro and the choruses. Put aside any convictions of authenticity and they just add to the fun. And I DARE you to sit still while this jam plays.
from 1968...

Fantastic , thanks for posting !!!
It is indeed, a massive track. Try it's big stripey brother "Tiger" where Auger burns the organ even more with the added bonus of an almost dissonant albeit brilliant female backing of "do-do, do-do-doo, do-do-do". Pure whacky!
