This week's #TuneTuesday theme is #EnterNight. Here's the great original version of "Night Time Is the Right Time":
Nappy Brown: The Right Time (1957)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dw3_eLTXm2c
Nappy Brown (real name: Napoleon Brown Goodson Culp, 1929-2008) was a former gospel singer who recorded a long string of excellent singles for Herman Lubinsky's Savoy label between 1954 and 1962. A few of them were hits, but in this case it was the later remake by Ray Charles (and Margie Hendrix) that made the charts.

"Rescue Me" is a #rhythmAndBlues song first recorded and released as a single by American #soul singer-songwriter #FontellaBass in 1965. The original versions of the record, and #BMI, give the songwriting credit to Raynard Miner and Carl William Smith, although many other sources also credit Bass herself as a co-writer. It would prove the biggest hit of Bass's career, reaching #1 on the #RAndB charts for four weeks and placing at #4 on the #Billboard #Hot100.

Main Man by Oliver Sain, released on Abet in 1972.
Oliver Sain Jr. (March 1, 1932 – October 28, 2003)[1] was an American saxophonist, songwriter, bandleader, drummer and record producer, who was an important figure in the development of rhythm and blues music, notably in St Louis, Missouri.
He set up his own recording studio, Archway, in St Louis in 1965, and recorded and produced artists such as the Montclairs and Julius Hemphill, developing "a distinctively full, dynamic sound that would come to help define the St. Louis soul aesthetic." He released his first album, Main Man, in 1972.. - Wikipedia
