About The Record:

Little Walter is the debut single by Tony! Toni! Toné!. It was the lead single from the R&B group's debut album Who. The narrator in the song describes a roommate by the name of Walter who makes money from an undisclosed job, and rather than pay rent, he spends his money on a lavish lifestyle. Walter was portrayed by comedian Sinbad in the video, who was portraying Walter Oakes on The Cosby Show spinoff A Different World. The melody is taken from the instrumentation on the spiritual tune Wade in the Water. Little Walter spent one week at No. 1 on the U.S. Soul chart. It also peaked at forty-seven on the Billboard Hot 100.
