One of only two 45s by Hersey Taylor, both recorded for Clarence Carter's Future Stars label, and this is my favourite of the four sides, a sad song of unrequited love. Nice blues-y guitar intro, solid bass, big fat horns, and that roaring, hoarse baritone over the top. Just listen to him let rip in the last 45 seconds - a classic slab of Deep Soul!
