Campbell and Connelly were a British songwriting team who often collaborated with a third composer, which in this case was the American Harry Wood.\n--\nIn 1962, Aretha Franklin recorded the song, charting at #100 in the US at a time when most of her singles failed to get much higher. Her arrangement was similar to that of the previous crooner versions and her vocal relatively restrained; it was Otis Redding who did the definitive soulful version of the song, complete with horns, organ, and an uninhibited vocal that builds in intensity as the song progresses.", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }
