"Harlem Shuffle" is an R&B song written and originally recorded by the duo Bob & Earl in 1963.

In 1986, it was covered by the British rock band The Rolling Stones on their album Dirty Work.

[3] Bob & Earl's original single, arranged by Gene Page, peaked at No.

The Rolling Stones' cover version appeared on their 1986 album Dirty Work.

Keith Richards had been looking for songs to possibly include on the album and had been working up songs with Ronnie Wood and Bobby Womack while waiting for Mick Jagger to return to the studio in Paris after doing promo work on his solo album She's the Boss.

The Rolling Stones produced an accompanying four-minute music video, which combined with live-action and animation.

The song's opening horn section was sampled by the hip-hop group House of Pain for their breakthrough hit single "Jump Around" from their self-titled album in 1992.
