Kanuffen Nov 08, 2012 - 23:01 | Jesus! (the expression... not the guy)..... I am so sad that it is only now that I found out the Black Crows didn't write this song. Guess that brings the number of good songs that the Black Crows have actually done to..... say.... Zero! Just kidding, I have no idea what the Black Crows have to offer as I am not a fan, but full marks to Otis Redding! I especially like the genuine brass! |

This is my favorite version, but to each his/her own, of course. yup...he be right....it was all Stax records for Otis, and from, as we proud southeners call it, mehhfisss...(or maybe that's jus me..whatever) |

kingart May 03, 2012 - 13:38 | If I had to pick, I'm going with Otis. Great voice. |
Stingray May 03, 2012 - 13:37 | Why is it so hard to find the handle, Otis? Stop sitting in the docks all day! |

Wow, way to misinterpret what someone else wrote. I believe "swede dude" was referring to the BLACK CROWS, as most of the other folks on this forum were. GEESH, who needs to relax? |
