Key Information

Christophe Kenner (December 25, 1929 – January 25, 1976) was an American, New Orleans–based R&B singer and songwriter,[1] best known for two hit singles in the early 1960s, "I Like It Like That" and "Land of 1000 Dances", which became staples in the repertoires of many other musicians.

Biography

[edit]

Born on Christmas Day, in the farming community of Kenner, Louisiana, upriver from New Orleans,[2] Kenner sang gospel music with his church choir. He moved to New Orleans when he was in his teens, to work as a stevedore.[3]

In 1955 he made his first recordings, for a small label, Baton Records, without success. In 1957, he recorded his "Sick and Tired" for Imperial Records.[2] Kenner's recording reached No. 13 on the Billboard R&B chart.[4] Fats Domino covered it the next year, and his version became a hit on the pop chart.[1] "Rocket to the Moon" and "Life Is Just a Struggle", both cut for Ron Records, were other notable songs Kenner recorded in this period.[2]

Moving to another New Orleans label, Instant (which initially was called 'Valiant' before they discovered the name was already in use),[2] he began to work with the pianist and arranger Allen Toussaint.[1] In 1961, this collaboration produced "I Like It Like That", his biggest and first pop hit,[1] peaking at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart (covered in 1965 by the Dave Clark Five), and "Something You Got" (covered by Wilson Pickett, Alvin Robinson, the Ramsey Lewis Trio, Johnny Rivers, Chuck Jackson and Maxine Brown, and Earl Grant, Fats Domino, Bobby Womack, the Moody Blues, the Searchers, the American Breed, Fairport Convention, Bruce Springsteen, Them, and Jimi Hendrix).[3] "I Like It Like That" sold over one million copies, was nominated for a Grammy Award,[3] and was awarded a gold disc by the Recording Industry Association of America.[5]

In 1963 he released his most enduring song, "Land of 1000 Dances",[1] based on an old spiritual. Kenner's version reached No. 77 on the pop chart in 1963. It was later covered by various artists, including Cannibal & the Headhunters, Fats Domino, Thee Midniters, Wilson Pickett, the Action, and Patti Smith. Kenner continued to record for Instant and for other small local labels, including many of his lesser-known songs from the 1960s, such as "My Wife", "Packing Up" and "They Took My Money". He released an album, Land of 1000 Dances, on Atlantic Records in 1966;[6] it was reissued on CD by Collectors' Choice in 2007.

Kenner's career was affected by his unpredictable behavior – he drank and spent heavily, and he sometimes missed shows or forgot the words to his songs.[3] He continued to record until 1968, with diminishing success. In 1968, Kenner was convicted of unlawful sex with a minor and spent three years in Louisiana's Angola prison.[7]

Kenner died from a heart attack in 1976, at the age of 46, triggered by alcoholism.[3]

Chris Kenner (December 25, 1929 – January 25, 1976) was an American singer and songwriter from New Orleans, , renowned for his energetic contributions to the city's R&B scene in the and . Born in the suburb of Kenner, he began his musical career singing gospel with the Harmonising Four alongside guitarist before transitioning to secular R&B while working as a longshoreman on the New Orleans waterfront. Kenner's breakthrough came in 1957 with "Sick and Tired," recorded for Imperial Records with producer Dave Bartholomew, though it achieved only modest chart success. His biggest hits arrived in the early 1960s on the Instant Records label, co-founded by Allen Toussaint, including the upbeat "I Like It Like That" (1961), which reached No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100, sold over a million copies, and earned a gold disc as well as a Grammy nomination for Best Rock and Roll Recording. He followed with "Something You Got" (also 1961), a regional hit that became widely covered, and "Land of 1,000 Dances" (1963), which peaked at No. 77 on the Hot 100 but evolved into a soul and rock classic through iconic covers by artists such as Wilson Pickett, Cannibal & the Headhunters, and Tom Jones. Kenner's songwriting drew from gospel roots and New Orleans influences like Willie Mabon and Big Joe Turner, blending infectious rhythms with call-and-response structures that influenced subsequent generations of musicians. Despite his songwriting success— with tracks like "Sick and Tired" later recorded by Fats Domino and the Dave Clark Five—Kenner struggled with personal challenges, including alcoholism and legal troubles that led to imprisonment, and released limited material after the mid-1960s, including a 1966 Atlantic album titled Land of 1,000 Dances. He died of a heart attack in New Orleans at age 46, leaving a legacy as an overlooked yet pivotal figure in the evolution of R&B and funk.

Early Life

The town, originally known as Kennerville, had developed as a hub of small truck farms since the post-Civil War era, supporting a predominantly working-class population amid the economic hardships of the , which began the year of his birth. As a member of an African American household in this rural Southern setting, Kenner experienced the challenges of the Depression-era , where agricultural labor and community ties defined daily life.

During the 1940s, as a young performer in community settings, Kenner began developing his songwriting abilities through casual local performances and participation in neighborhood bands, experimenting with lyrics that echoed the joys and struggles of everyday life. The post-World War II migration of Southern musicians and audiences to urban hubs like New Orleans amplified this growth, fostering a cultural exchange that allowed Kenner to blend harmonies with the syncopated rhythms of nascent R&B, laying the groundwork for his distinctive style. This fusion reflected broader trends in the region's music, where rural roots merged with urban influences to create the energetic sound that would propel New Orleans R&B forward.

Kenner's partnership with pianist and arranger deepened during this period, starting with their work on Instant Records where Toussaint handled production and added signature horn sections to enhance the upbeat, brass-infused New Orleans sound. This collaboration extended to later recordings, including sessions for , where Toussaint's arrangements helped blend Kenner's raw energy with polished R&B production. Their joint efforts on Instant laid the groundwork for Kenner's most memorable output, evolving from his earlier Imperial Records singles that established his songwriting voice.
