Just reading Steve saying that he liked 'about every version of " Baby Please Don't Go" ' got me thinking of a particular quirk I've got..There are a couple of songs of which I am fond of, namely.." Bring It On Home To Me ,It's All Over Now and Baby Please Don't Go " so much so that I try to collect as many versions of them that I can. It's interesting to see how the same song is interpretated and more often than not the nearer to the original the better it is. It could be smuggness or music snobbery but it's nice when you can say to someone " yes ,but have you heard it by..." Although I do get upset at times when people introduce songs that they are about to perform and instead of giving the credit to the original artist/writer accredit to the most current performer.

There I feel better now.
