1985 studio album by Jean Knight
My Toot Toot is
Jean Knight 's third studio album and her first in four years. The
title track was previously a Zydeco hit for
Rockin' Sidney . Other cover versions on this album include a rerecorded version of Knight's biggest hit "
Mr. Big Stuff " (which contains a rap intro) and
Shirley & Lee 's hit "Let the Good Times Roll." It would be twelve years before Knight released another studio album, though she did continue touring and making live performances.
