Yer Rock & Roll 10





For some reason P.P. Arnold came into mind the other day. Here is her version of The First Cut is the Deepest. As some wag on YouTube commented, she makes Rod Stewart (who also recorded this song) sound like an oxygen thief by comparison. Just enjoy...

P.P Arnold started out as a backing singer with Ike and Tina Turner, and here are the ill-starred couple performing Nutbush City Limits. Evil looking so and so isn't he? Apparently there really is a place called Nutbush...

Crank up the volume (I did)!

I just read that Cat Stevens never released his original version of "The First Cut..." because he felt that Arnold's version was the definitive one.

Hard to argue.
