Night Time Is the Right Time
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Night Time Is the Right Time" is a blues standard that has been interpreted and recorded by a variety of music artists.[1] First recorded in 1937 by Roosevelt Sykes, a.k.a. "The Honeydripper," the song features the memorable refrain "Because night time, is the right time, to be with the one you love" towards the end of each twelve-bar verse.
In 1938, Big Bill Broonzy recorded the song with slightly different (and more suggestive) lyrics (Vocalion 4149/Conqueror 9073). The same year, Roosevelt Sykes recorded a second version "Night Time Is The Right Time #2" (Decca 7438), also with slightly different lyrics. These earliest recordings of "Night Time Is The Right Time" are credited to Roosevelt Sykes and Leroy Carr, although Carr had already died in 1935 without any known recordings of the song.[2] Subsequent recordings and reissues of the song over the years would be credited to an increasing number of writers, although retaining much of Roosevelt Sykes' version's character and well-known refrain.[1][2]
In 1957, Nappy Brown recorded "Night Time Is The Right Time." A hit version of the song recorded by Ray Charles was released as a single in late 1958. It was also featured on the album Ray Charles at Newport and The Genius Sings the Blues. Charles was helped in the song by lead Raelette Margie Hendricks, who sang a raspy and demanding vocal to Charles' own raspy baritone and wails. The song made a modest appearance on the pop singles chart, peaking a number ninety-five, while making a more impressive showing on the R&B singles chart at number five.
