Candi Staton - "He Called Me Baby"

I'm testing a new file hosting service. Enjoy. This song is sublime.

At some time in the last year, I discovered this song and it has become one of my absolute favourites. Utter perfection.

I picked up on this track from One Eskimo's version which they call Kandi.
It's getting a lot of air play in the UK at the moment. I think Staton's is the moodier and best.

Doesn't One Eskimo just sample her version directly? I mean heck, the guitar part is exactly the same, just on an acoustic.

Check it:

Song's going viral with a Lefsetz push. Hope Candi stanton gets a bump out of this.
