The Songfactors' Choice Top Ten #137

[karma]

Kentucky Woman-Deep Purple (1968)

Takin' It To The Streets-Doobie Brothers (1979)

Be sure and listen. I didn't know that Deep Purple recorded that. Just stumbled on it. I like it much better than Neil Diamonds rendition altho' Neil wrote it I believe.

I have to second this. Thanks for hanging in with us this week everybody. Double (triple?) thanks to those that posted and re-posted nominations. It's been a screwy week, but things are back on track now. We've talked about it, and Fin is going to leave the voting open until Monday, so that y'all can "git er done" !
