In 1968, the hit version was sung - no, screamed! - by Janis Joplin with Big Brother and the Holding Company. Here’s the original, a very soulful R&B Top 10 by Aretha’s older sister, Erma Franklin. The song was co-written by the infamous Bert Berns, who first asked Van Morrison to record it - which Van turned down. Faith Hill did a version that went to #1 on the country charts in 1994. Faith claimed to have never heard the song prior to recording it.
