The hardest thing I’ll ever do

Legendary DEEEP soul singer Otis Clay and “Trying To Live My Life Without You” on Hi Rccords.   Produced in Memphis by Willie Mitchell in 1972.   Here’s a great live version from Japan in 1978 as well.

Bob Seger brought this one back to the charts with his cover in 1981.   (Side note courtesy of Wikipedia:     Seger has claimed that he recorded the song to show how the Eagles stole the song’s melody in their song “The Long Run”. Seger highlights the similarities between the two songs in the arrangement of his version, in the bassline especially.)

I like the little white dog too.
