Chris Kenner wrote a number of enduring New Orleans R&B classics, although subsequent cover versions eclipsed all but I Like It Like That, his Grammy-nominated greatest hit in 1961. Kenner co-wrote Sick and Tired with Fats Domino and charted with it in 1957 on Imperial, but Dominos version blew it out of the water. Signing with Joe Babashaks Instant label, Kenners I Like It Like That, Land of 1000 Dances, and Something You Got sported Allen Toussaints rolling piano behind Kenners raw vocals.
