Sebastian Posted February 21, 2009 Posted February 21, 2009 James & Bobby Purify had the big hit, but there are many versions around of it. Dan Penn's original version on MGM is great as well. He actually sings "I'm The Puppet" in his version.
Garethx Posted February 21, 2009 Posted February 21, 2009 In my opinion no reading of this song matches the keening purity of Dan Penn's original, but I love Marvin & Tammi's version from their "Easy" album too, where it's given a slick midtempo dance treatment. James & Bobby Purify cut this a couple of times: the version which was a UK Chart hit in the early 70s was by James with a different "Bobby" I seem to recall.
Guest Posted February 21, 2009 Posted February 21, 2009 Dionne Warwick great version,and another one aswell forgot who tho'.

I also find it comes in handy for removing troublesome stains and getting stomes out of horses hooves, myself... I agree with Mr. Penn himself that James and Bobby's is the best version, incidentally. Although, as is suggested elsewhere in this thread, Dionne Warwick's is lovely too.

I've got a horse, what's a stome? Like the J & B P version. P

I agree with Mr. Penn himself that James and Bobby's is the best version, incidentally. Although, as is suggested elsewhere in this thread, Dionne Warwick's is lovely too. I think James & Bobby Purify's version is the best too, more so the 1966 version taken from the James & Bobby Album written by Dan Penn and produced by Papa Don. One of the most definitive 6t's southern country soul albums ever!!!
Guest TONY ROUNCE Posted February 22, 2009 Posted February 22, 2009 I've got a horse, what's a stome? ...you'd know one if you saw one, it looks a bit like a stone...
