Edwyn Collins & Orange Juice
Edwyn Collins & Orange Juice - Witchcraft
The opening 30 seconds of this track sound an awful lot like a Dr. Dre production. And then you quickly realize it's anything but. The original version was penned (I believe) by Cy Coleman and has been performed by Frank Sinatra, Elvis, and Marvin Gaye. None of them are as sultry and Jarvis Cockery as this one.

Very lovely. Don't remember hearing this before, but can't think of a better way to hear for the first time than in the middle of the bid bad night, on Blogathan Saturday.Posted by: Nic Dafis at July 29, 2006 06:23 PM
