Best cover of Aint No Sunshine?

the_dL

As the original is no doubt the best, what is the Struts favourite cover? I have always really liked the Jackson 5 and Jose version, and I have an Italian version somewhere that I will try to upload soon, but am keen to hear some others

I'm not picking favorites but MJ and Eddy Senay have been doing it for me lately. and of course Mr. Kirk

Yay, nice threat! some cool ones in here, indeed that is one of my favorite songs ever...

IMHO Lyn??s Version is unbeatable, besides that i love the Soul Fantastics one which i have a very strong reminiscence of as i found it on the last day of a Panama trip when being together with a fantastic woman which i had to leave soon after.....

also, this drives me nuts too



should be my top 3 in order

While I love many of the instrumental versions of this one, I think a version has to be vocal to even contend for "Best Version".

This is one of my personal favorites. I like the version of this over the Mafia & Fluxy rhythm. Couldn't find a youtube.

Years of exercise via fast-paced record digging in competition with highly caffeinated Japanese dudes and coked-up Euromens.

Yes. When the drums open up, it's over. Additionally, it's not too hard to locate.
