It is "Voltaire Pier" by Chocolat Boys covered up as Ramsey Lewis: "Down By The Waterhole". There is a Ramsey Lewis song with a similar title being a version of "Down By The Riverside" on the Latin Jazz LP hence it is easy to be led astray. The Belgian/French group Chocolat Boys did a good job: Johnnie K in Auckland, New Zealand.

THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH TO YOU FOR REPLYING. I LOVE THE TUNE AND COULD NEVER FIND A RAMSEY LEWIS TRACK CALLED: DOWN BY THE WATERHOLE [THOUGH HE DID RECORD A SONG CALLED DOWN BY THE RIVERSIDE ON THE LATIN JAZZ LP WHICH IS REALLY GOOD]. IF YOU CAN APPRECIATE THAT I AM 12,000 MILES AWAY AND COMPLETELY OUT OF TOUCH. SO I AM THANKFUL. IN THE END IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT IT'S CALLED. IT'S THE MUSIC. IT'S A GREAT TUNE. THEY DID A GREAT JOB. AND SO DID YOU. THE NORTHERN SOUL FANS ARE ALL REALLY GREAT AND INCREDIBLY HELPFUL. I EXPRESS MY INCREDIBLE GRATITUDE.

Dear Soul Fans, Could someone help me please - a soul fan for New Zealand - a land so far away it's tomorrow. There is a Ramsey Lewis cover up of what I recall being called: Down At The Jetty or something like that - which turns out to be a Belgian jazz group - I think. Someone in the United Kingdom will know. I love Ramsey Lewis and soul jazz piano. And I liked this tune. But I just can't remember the song title, the band, or the name given to it by the northern soul Deejay. Thank you: from Johnnie K.
