Post subject: The Greatest "Three Chord" Songwriter EVER!
First one takes a few seconds to get to the "meat". This is the first music that attracted me from MoTown (which I still love, and is immortal) to something from my own ethnic group (which is totally a misnomer, because this guy was heavily influenced by gospel).

I still remember the liner notes, which had an anecdote to the effect of the producers telling him "you need twelve songs to record an album, but you don't know twelve songs." So, he wrote some.

Link says '67, but I think I was hearing this on AM Radio by '66.

67 version (?), the definitive version

'72...Rockin' guitar, but not the great piano and girl backups.

'05, the girls are back, with piano (both in a MAJOR way, and it's amazing how much it still rocks.

One of the first songs I learned to play on guitar.

Talk about being robbed. Eligible for the RR Hall of fame since 89' and still waiting. Madonna beat him to it? Rolling Eyes
