Aretha Franklin covered and re-arranged this song (written by Redding) and made it a big hit. Her version may be more pop, pretty, and polished but Redding's original is more raw.
A much needed Black Music thread.

Sad to hear about Brenton Wood. I posted a few of his songs, really dig his sound. Gimme Little Sign is obviously his shining glory but this one is my favorite. RIP

Jamiroquai was an acid jazz/funk band from the 90's and 00's. They were much bigger in the UK than in North America. The track I was most familiar with was "Virtual Insanity" which appeared on their 1996 LP 'Travelling Without Moving'. It actually never charted her but I do recall seeing the music video played on MuchMusic at the time. Fast forward to a week ago viewing of a YT video of a bass cover of the song "Time Won't Wait" by the same group. It was released back in 2005. Since then I've been playing it pretty consistently. I love finding hidden gems like this.
Don't care for the song but love the exhuberant chorus.
