Soul singer/R&B cat Aloe Blacc is currently on tour through early December in support of his debut album Good Things which has quickly become one of my favorite Fall releases. He plays Philly at World Cafe Live on Saturday, November 20. Download the song below, then check out the original by Carr and Cat Power’s cover of the same.

Aloe has good pipes, but nobody comes close to James Carr, or Dan Penn on this song. Not even Aretha.
