“Let’s Work Together” (Wilbert Harrison) #32 2/7/1970

Occasionally contract issues derail one’s career, which happened to Wilbert Harrison. For that reason he couldn’t follow up the success of 1959’s “Kansas City.” He kept at it and in 1962 did the original of this song, called “Let’s Stick Together.” Wilbert eventually reworked the tune with a slightly altered title. Canned Heat also recorded it at about this time but held off their release until later in 1970.
