Don Evans was an original member of the Paragons and stayed with them through some of their various transformations up until the mid-1980s. He shares credit for writing this tune.
I checked both versions and must say that they sound totally different.

Johnny Osbourne also sang a song with that title for another producer.

I just listen to Don Evans version and JUDAH ESKENDER TAFARI version and they sound the same. I might be mistaken because I only have shared mp3's to check but got from a good source. I might have to buy these 2 tracks on vinyl and put it to the test.
Does anyone have these 2 tracks on vinyl? Bellyman?
