Thanks for that Robert, that's one good reminder of why he was known as THE GOVERNER :)

Yes, and Sarah Kennedy played That Old Black Magic earlier this week and it was pretty wonderful. :)

Hi Sandra--it is a different song--my one starts

"Where would I be without your love, I'll never know--if I were free, what would I do, where would I go, I'm only me, and I love you so."

Jackie actually did 2 versions of this song-I prefer the original, which is slower-but she also did a much faster version.

Its a lovely tune, lovely words, but for some reason , not as well known as " Where are you now?"

I can't decide on one song for Al Green, so I'll save him for later.
