This is the problem with most of the music threads they end up like a shopping list of songs with absolutely no discussion..

The Letter-Joe Cocker

The stereo recording here goes to mono in the last verse and outro, since in those days the flanging effect was more effective in mono. Cool effect for this song ‘cause it sounds like an airplane.
I’m sure they used a session-bassist, wish I knew who it was…

Prefer the original over the remake, though I was more familiar with the cover.

The original version from Boz was perfect for an album cut, but the cover just reeks instant hit.

Amy Winehouse...Brilliant, Perfection always...



Carol King


Unknown to me but song well..


Bee Gees a slow one like Carol King's, Norah Jones a soft
gentle version that is good... and maybe some others out
there...
but lastly the original
by The Shirelles great and a No1 in the charts in 1960, I
was 12 years
then and act like it sometimes as well!
