Hi,
Is this the 'first version' of this tune or there is an earlier one? maybe 'early blues' or soul. its on this album http://www.roots-archives.com/release/2 ... ight=25096

AFAIK is a Prince Lincoln composition.
If is a cover of a Soul tune I'd like to know!

it's an original Prince Lincoln song,

maybe you thought of John Legend & the Roots' cover?

The original version was done on the neville king label titled "love the way it should be" as a single release by the royal rass-es fronted by the great Prince Lincoln Thompson

Looks like there might have been an earlier release in JA on the God Sent label in 1975.
