_Laurie_ Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 From Wiki Hi Lea I found this...I'm at work so I don't have a lot of time to read it over...If I read right...looks like it's on the album "Little Bit More"... and Walk Right In...1977?

LeeBB Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 I recommend the original Sam Cooke. I've never yet heard anyone cover a Sam Cooke song that comes within a mile of the original. Otis' version of "Shake" maybe comes the closest ;-) LBBB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Berry Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 It was released the same year that 'Doctor Hook and the Medicine Show" sold out, shaved the raggedy beards and put on polyester disco garb, and make more money with that pale song than any of their earlier freak flag music combined, with the exception of 'Cover of the Rolling Stone'...'Freaker's Ball' never really hit top 40. That's cool, though I'd like a nice nest egg like the one 'Only Sixteen' surely netted before I retire, too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I personally think that Otis' version of Shake is better, but that's possibly because anything that Otis touched is golden to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
