    A favorite of mine just
    coming on was IF YOU NEED ME.
    Solomon Burke and Wilson Pickett.
    2 separate versions.
    I favored the Pickett version.
    Even bought the record.
    It had a nice yellow label.
    Both would be major pop
    stars but Pickett would really
    explode October 1965 with
    IN THE MIDNIGHT HOUR.
