I actually like the way she sings it better than Aretha

I don't know how to embed, but my favorite cover is "My Girl", the Temptations first No. 1 hit in 1964 redone by The Mamas and Papas in 1967. I really, really, really like both versions, though!

[Voodoo Chile70]

"Johnny B. Goode" played by Jimi Hendrix, Berkley Community Centre 1968; the ultimate version of it.

Very nice cover from old classic.
