Sunday under covers with Ken Boothe

Track:Dark End of the Street
While I still think that Pat Kelly's cut for Bunny Lee, using Ken Parker's evergreen "How Long" rhythm, and famously versioned by Roland Alphonso as "Peyton Place", was the best Jamaican cut of this ageless Dan Penn/Spooner Oldham classic, Ken Boothe was always a reliable performer when it came to covering soul tunes, and this is one of the best, so here it is for you the music lover

This song sounds like it was written for him. A great recording.
I'm with deadmandeadman on this, Very nice listen!
I was introduced to Ken Boothe at Moody's Records in The Bronx. A real JA styled store (piles of 45's and 12"). I think you'd like there B. if you haven't been already. Mr. Boothe is a killer indeed on versions.
