loving, slightly chaotic tribute to old-school rhythm & blues and boogie-woogie piano music but filtered through late-60s psychedelic, Boogie-woogie / barrelhouse piano, pounding piano riff is the backbone, old New Orleans R&B, rolling train-track rhythm that sounds mechanical and joyful at the same time, 1960s British pop-rock, underneath the vintage influence, it still has that sharp production and punchy pop structure, drums and bass hit much harder than a real 1950s recording would, Bluesy brass arrangement, saxophones give it a smoky, street-corner feel, The horn parts are rough and energetic, Music hall / vaudeville flavour, a very British, theatrical quality to it, grounded and cinematic, hybrid of New Orleans boogie-woogie, bluesy rock ’n’ roll, and British pop, played with the swagger of a late-60s rock band
