Ain't nothin like Etta James' recording, but ain't nothing like Beyonce's neitha.
I was turned on to Etta's version on "Blending the Blues - Volume 2," a Blues and Soul compilation put out by Chess Records and Starbucks. Other tunes you gotta hear off this thing are Leadbelly's "Where Did You Sleep Last Night," and Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee playin "Walk On."
Performed by Beyonce
Written by Ellington Jordan-Billy Foster
Have a Soulful Sunday ya'll,

ReplyDeleteHey! I spent a good hour last night listening to the Cadillac Records soundtrack and a bunch of original versions of the music and didn't even know this was your Sunday soulful video of the week! Sweeeeeeet.
