Heard this song at work the other day and have had it stuck in my head since. Dusty Springfield recorded the original that has been featured in tons of TV and movies including Reservoir Dogs. The opening lick is also famously looped for the Cypress Hill track "Hits from the Bong." Overall it is a classic track. Love it. Great album cover also.

Best Song Oscars
With the Oscars happening recently I went and checked who won and it got me looking at previous winners of the Best Song category. This is from Crazy Heart in 2007 and Bingham won for writing and performing this song. I'm no much of a country fan but this is a beautiful song.

Festivals
All of the big summer festivals are putting lineups online and it is starting to get me pretty excited. Their are a couple of artists that are going through the festival scenes this summer. If I can go to one, and that is a big "if", I'm really not sure which I would choose. Bonaroo has Paul McCartney this year which is pretty fucking awesome, clearly a once in a lifetime show. But I have already mad the trip to Tennessee, as well as Alabama for Hangout, so I think I would want to try a new one. Wanee is always a good thought. It's close and you can never go wrong with the Allman Brothers, plus God knows how much longer they might be around. But who knows maybe this will just have to be a break year for me, though I sure hope it's not.

New Orleans Jazz Festival
I have recently found out I may be able to go to the New Orleans Jazz Festival at the end of April. It is not for sure yet but I am getting pretty excited after checking out who will be there. The lineup is of course stacked with great artists from all different genres. The night I would be going has Dave Matthews Band (my personal favorite), Earth Wind, And Fire, and B.B. King. The festival is split up over two weekend from the end of April to the beginning of May. To see the rest of the lineup I'm leaving it right here http://lineup.nojazzfest.com/
