Do you like good music? Arthur Conley was a protegé of the great Otis Redding. Arthur and Otis, however, lifted the melody from Sam Cooke's "Yeah Man" to where Sam's manager sued to have Cooke posthumously added to the writing credits. The song is a roll call of 60's R&B greats, but James Brown is the king of them all, y'all!

He mentions Lou Rawls as well, who I later learned also recorded a few Jazz vocal albums.
Notice this song's intro and final chorus is also the intro and final chorus of the theme from The Magnificent Seven?
