Ben E. King 1938 - 2015


A belated song for Ben E. King who died a week back. Not Stand By Me which great as it is has just been played into the ground. Here's the original of the tune that Aretha turned into possibly her greatest record eight years later in 1970. Both singles strangely reached # 11 in the Billboard charts. Starts with the Stand By Me shuffle for those that want a bit of that even now.
