“The Ali Shuffle” (Capitol) late '60s

by Wax Poetics

After they saw the Greatest bragging about his new move on TV, David Axelrod and H. B. Barnum wrote this song over the phone in one night and recorded it the next morning with friends. What was meant to be a novelty song turned out to be a funky mod dancer, which is only now getting some deserving spins.
