They've already done Talks To Angels. Thats why in the beginning Jordan thought it might be slower like that song is.

This is a great Otis Redding song. You should really check out his (original) version. The horn work is punchy and pretty sublime.

Otis was awesome. This is a great cover but it's a shame people don't know he did it first.

@@adampowell5986 Mostly because he only wrote and recorded it shortly before he passed away. It didn't get released until June 1968 on the posthumous album "Siren". It was actually written by three people: Otis redding, Al Bell and Allen Jones.

I’m with everyone else with She Talks to Angels is such a beautiful and touching song. A lot of their songs are so great but that song touches me on a lyrical level. Like Elton John singing Tiny a Dancer, it’s almost a religious experience for me. Don’t know why, just know how it touches me

These guys are legit. I caught them live about 10 years ago in southeastern Texas. They played a no-frills show on a wooden stage on a dusty horse race-track and it was honestly easily one of the top 5 concerts I've been to in my whole life. They just played their butts off and absolutely killed it.

@@oldtimer7635 Very nice! Something new for me. Just checked it out (kzbin.info/www/bejne/aJ3MeYxpqrushLssi=b9QTl3V_Yjz0DBd6). To be clear, though, by "most famous" I mean "most airplay", "most recordings sold", etc. (Not at all a commentary on "quality".). I don't know for sure, of course, but I strongly suspect the Black Crowes version has been heard by more folks. I attended a New Years Eve concert as we moved from 2019 to 2020. Right after the the midnight champaign bottle's cork popped, the lead singer announced they had one more song to perform and brought the new year (2020) in with "Hard to Handle". They did a great job. Maybe too good. Y'all will remember what a terrible year 2020 was - pandemic, social protests (police killing of George Floyd), natural disasters, killer bees, and on and on. As the band was announcing their next NYE concert, I jokingly requested to the singer that they NOT start another year with "Hard to Handle". :). (I think 2020 was the hardest year to handle, at least in my lifetime so far.)

As it turned out, Black Crowes was the musical guest. They played Jealous Again and it woke me out of a dead sleep. At the time, I owned a compact disc store. Next mornkng I added another 50 pieces to our pre-order for the album. I don’t know how many we sold over the years but it was a bunch. Terrific band. I enjoyed seeing how it struck you on your first listen just as I was hooked the first time I heard the album. Thank you.
