This is the one I remember - right down to the volume "burp" in the middle.
I never heard the Canned Heat version until very recently- don't know how I missed it, but I prefer the original.
saw him perform this at Cobo Hall in Detroit in 1970 The lineup was Wilbert then Booker T and the MGs and then Credence Clearwater Revival ,, they don't make em like that anymore
Instead of arguing 'this is better than that' and dissing other versions, try showing a bit of musical maturity and appreciate that other musicians have interpreted the song their way. Yes this is the original recorded on primitive equipment ... and that's how it sounds ... raw, earthy and beautiful. Just be thankful someone took the time to upload it...thanks Hankgwe
