While setting off this morning into that Fog and ice a tune came through the radio....At Last by Geof Lynn..

Well i was not that impressed but thought You cannot beat the one by Etta James......

My thought while heading South was how many Northern Tracks have been made by Artists with the same title,

One tune i do like a lot is Wade in the water now that was done by a few....

Just a thought be good to hear some others that have been done, and which do you prefer the first released or second, or third,

Regards Mal...

The problem there though is that some might think Etta James' version isn't as good as Glenn MIllers' - it's probably a generation thing

HI MAL,

AT LAST............

Old school- Etta James

Not too old school- Temprees

New school- Jahmaine Douglas

Love the tune and love all the versions above which is unusual as sometimes when another artist covers the origianal it can be painful on the ears!.

Hi Pete

Yes agree with you it again reminds me of.....You will never walk alone....

Origional Rodgers & Hammerstein. Great tune but my Fav is by Roy Hamilton, then Gerry Marsden did well with it and i suppose the Liverpool Kop made it great.....you can go on all night,

One of my favourite songs ever. Heard the Jeff Lynn cover a few weeks ago.............soon as I heard it I thought "who the hell is this!!!"...............no passion and feeling whatsoever, worst cover I've ever heard

THAT IS UNTIL YOU MENTIONED THE TEMPREES, lol.......................they should be hung, drawn and quartered IMO!!!!

Jahmene Douglas.................pretty damn good though..............very soulful!!!
