Over the weekend our band which I play bass guitar in had a show; this was one of the covers along with a some original material that we played. The show and this song in particular turned out quite nice, so I figured that it would make a good song pick to close out the weekend.
The song gained the most popularity from the Janis Joplin and Big Brother and the Holding Company version, however the song was originally recorded by Aretha Franklin's elder sister Erma Franklin, which can be found here on YouTube. It has been covered quite a bit since.

Here is a recording of the song on YouTube.
Watch a live performance of the song on YouTube.


My song pick a year ago today: Nightwish - The Kinslayer
My song pick two years ago today: Boz Scaggs - Lido Shuffle
