plus it's a great tune

the 45 version is my fav. it's a different lead from Jean and it's a bit more soulful. she does a few more slides and embellishments than on the lp version

the Pink Box set has the 45 version of the tune
I love the 45 version. I think it would have worked as a follow-up single and given Frank Wilson more time to work on "Everybody's Got The Right To Love," which was probably a better fit for New Ways.
