Don Covay - "It's Better To Have (And Don't Need)" (1974)
I rather left things dangling in the 'great tracks I want to bring to your attention' stakes, didn't I? The last regular entry was back in late April.
I suppose I lost interest (and I suspect that I wasn't the only one), and I'd also got fed up with having to go through the ones I'd already posted to check if the corporate scumsuckers had had the video pulled.
I think it's time to dive straight back in again, so here goes with a storming little number from Don Covay, who was already a veteran of the soul/r'n'b (and I mean real r'n'b, not the autotuned shite they hang the label on nowadays) scene from the early sixties.
I'm not usually a fan of those fields of music, but this track kicks righteous buttock. It grooves, baby! Take it away, Don!
