Screamin' Jay Hawkins.

What year was that, Dave? Looks like the 70's to me...
Nina Simone recording was 1968...

Oh I see... he recorded it in 1956 and the recording became popular then.. just looked it up.

Thanks for the post. :)

Original or remake so long as it sounds good!!!! That performance by Screamin' Jay Hawkins was from a late Eighties TV show. That song is used in the movie "Stranger Than Paradise". I have it on cd as well!!!! Say speaking of this song do you remember ever listening to it???? When it came out at that time????
