This was Benton's first Mercury single and the start of his glorious career. If you haven't heard the uptempo flip, you're missing out... clearly, Benton and Jackie Wilson were cut from the same soul cloth! Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage Mercury Records factory sleeve. It has Mint labels and untouched-looking vinyl. The audio grades very close to Mint.
