Great rec IMO, although techinically it's a 70's song (1972). So is Wonder's "Living for the City", another phenomenal song.

Thanks for the Booker T suggestion. I went with Time is Tight instead of Green Onions, which I am kinda sick of. But I was trying to remember their name all day today.

Also, there is already Buddy Holly on the playlist.
