Wonderful soulful version! I have a video of Eric Burdon and The Animal's version of this song, but this 1967 cover is great too. He sings in a way that Otis Redding did with some of his own words and interjections. My favorite covers of this happen to be 1960s people because each of their personalities come through in their versions, Janis Joplin's, for one. Michael Bolton's cover of it is often mentioned, but that one doesn't do it for me. A Portuguese person referred me to this version. I know many of the covers of this that you'd think I'd have known this one too, but I didn't. I also see on the sidebar a Chamber's Brother's version and that was a great band. Thanks for the video!
