edna Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 "People Get Ready" Jeff Beck & Rod Stewart Written by Curtis Mayfield. Here's the facts for the original by the Impressions in 1965. Jeff Beck and Rod Stewart recorded a cover in 1985 included in Beck's album, "Flash". Released as a single, it made #5 on Billboard's Mainstream Rock and #48 on Hot 100. ...gained considerable airplay on album rock and classic rock radio stations and had a popular video on MTV. The interpretation featured Beck's gospel- tinged lead guitar lines carrying the melody with Stewart's signature raspy vocal set against that. It also represented a brief reunion between the two 1960s band mates, and they would perform the song again during intermittent one- off reunions in later years.
