“You Send Me” (Aretha Franklin) #56 7/13/1968

Occasionally, accomplished acts like Aretha Franklin would remake legendary songs. She re-did Sam Cooke’s famous 1957 hit (his very first) as the B-side to “Think.” Sam actually wrote it, but gave the credit to his brother L.C. so the music publisher wouldn’t rip him off. That tended to happen quite a bit back then.
