Nina Simone was my first jazz singer, it was my high school prom in Greenwich Village, the club was very dark and smokey, the stage was tiny and there she stood the great Nina Simone!

Swell!
First heard this sung by Three Dog Night, Live at the Forum, 1969, when they were billed as one of the HEAVIEST rock bands in America!

@carysatch i lived down the hall from the grandson of the guy who wrote this. his name was harry woods. his grandson george woods happens to be a dynamite guitar player and pretty decent songwriter himself. Cheers!

They are both great artist and they both sing it amaSINGly..its only a matter of taste..i love both versions::

ok, it was written by "Irving King" which was really two or three guys writing under a pseudo-name...what is it with names anyway?...but I actually thought for a moment that she may have written it...dang, now I'm curious what she DID write ... hmmm...research time again...8]

@merlynho I like Otis' version alot also, yet was it only because we heard it first? it was in our time that it was made possible, modified to the popular sounds of the day? it is still a great song, however different she does it from the great Otis Redding, she still does it well, as did many other people...that reminds me, I was curious who wrote this song? I will have to do research...I shall return!! 8]



she' wonderful.....: )))
