Not sure about this one, which is a current song...it's not entirely original taking quite a lot from 'Take me to the River' by both Al Green originally and then Talking Heads later...it strikes me essentially though as broadly a new song, which references something [the chorus ?] from earlier recordings..so is it a cover..you decide..?

It sounds alright though.

Everyone knows the original - but have you ever heard this masterpiece?

First there was 'the Supremes' and then Donnie Elbert came and did a different job on it.

If I can return to Donnie Elbert for just three minutes....as far as covers go he did a couple of belters in the early 1970s..[the one above] and then he had a go at the Four Top's song..'I can't help myself' [1972]

I assume you mean from the album 'John Wesley Harding' by the composer Bob Dylan.
