Hey, hi! Glad you stopped

The Battle of The Bands (BOTB) is your basic Which-do-you-like-best
contest where the one that gets the most votes wins. All you have to do is show
up (the 1st and/or 15th of every month) give a listen and
cast your vote in the comment section. Votes will be tallied and the winner
revealed on or about 8 days later.

Next: The song was so
popular that the first of many covers (Joe Cocker gave it a try but couldn't hold a candle) was recorded within a decade. Here’s one by Mint Juleps:
There you
have it, folks! Which do you like best? And how come? Let me know in the
comment section below. Oh! And, before you go, hop around and see the rest of
today’s battles (participating sites are located in the top right sidebar of
this page)
Have a
wonderful April, Everybody!
See you soon!
