* Many other artists have recorded versions of the song. Georgie Fame's and Cher's issues both charted in the UK Top 75 in 1966. Other covering artists include James Brown and Marva Whitney, Robert Mitchum, the Classics IV, the Electric Flag, Jose Feliciano, Stevie Wonder, Ella Fitzgerald, The Four Seasons, the Four Tops, Marvin Gaye, Jamiroquai, Stanley Jordan, Mina, Jimmy Smith, Johnny Mathis, Les McCann, Chris Montez, Leonard Nimoy, Wilson Pickett, Buddy Richard, Del Shannon, Frank Sinatra with Duke Ellington, Oscar Peterson with Joe Pass and Ray Brown, Luis Miguel Dusty Springfield, Sony & Cher, War, and the Twinset featuring Barnaby Weir. * Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass made an instrumental version of "Sunny" on the LP album "The Brass Are Comin'" launched in 1969 (A & M SP 4228). * A disco version was released by Boney M in 1977. This version was sampled by the Boogie Pimps and used to create their 2004 hit "Sunny." Hebb himself released a disco version of the song in 1976, and had minor success on Billboard's R&B chart. * There are two compilations of versions of Sunny released on the Trocadero label in Germany. * Buffalo Tom's Bill Janovitz wrote an essay about the tune for the All Music Guide and Bobby Hebb has released two duets (one with Pat Appleton) on the Tuition label out of Germany (2006) re-released in America on Allegro in 2007. Jerry Ross is thinking of releasing the original 18 song acoustic tape which contains the demo version of "Sunny", this would be on his Heritage label. Bobby Hebb performed a double-sided disco version of "Sunny" which was released on Laurie Records in 1975 co-produced and arranged by Joe Renzetti. The original 1966 version was #1 in Cashbox and should have been #1 in Billboard, just as "Louie Louie" was a legitimate #1 that lingered at #2 for some unknown reason.
