▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ The career of singer Don Covay spanned ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ virtually the entirety of the R&B ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ spectrum, from the electrifying rock & ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ roll of his earliest records to the ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ gritty, swaggering deep soul of his most ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ enduring efforts -- the scope and ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ diversity of his catalog no doubt ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ contributed to his failure to enjoy ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ consistent commercial success, however, ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ and the general public is probably better ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ acquainted with his songs than with his ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ own renditions of them. Born Donald ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Randolph in Orangeburg, South Carolina on ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ March 24, 1938, Covay was the son of a ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Baptist preacher who died when his son was ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ eight. The family soon after relocated to ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Washington, D.C., where he and his ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ siblings formed a gospel group dubbed the ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Cherry Keys; while in middle school, ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ however, some of Covay's classmates ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ convinced him to make the leap to secular ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ music, and in 1953 he joined the Rainbows, ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ a local doo wop group that previously ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ enjoyed a national smash with "Mary Lee." ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ By the time Covay joined the Rainbows the ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ original lineup had long since splintered, ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ and his recorded debut with the group, ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ 1956's "Shirley," was not a hit. He stuck ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ around for one more single, "Minnie," ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ before exiting; contrary to legend, this ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ iteration of the Rainbows did not include ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ either a young Marvin Gaye or Billy ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Stewart, although both fledgling singers ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ did occasionally fill in for absent ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ personnel during live performances. In the ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ meantime Covay landed a job chauffeuring ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ his idol, Little Richard, doing double- ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ duty as the hitmaker's opening act; ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Richard soon produced Covay's 1957 solo ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ debut "Bip Bip Bip," a blistering single ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ credited to Pretty Boy. Issued on ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Atlantic, the record went nowhere and he ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ next landed at Sue. During the remaining ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ years of the decade Covay released four ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ more singles for as many labels -- ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ "Switchin' in the Kitchen" on Big, ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ "Standing in the Doorway" on Blaze, "If ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ You See Mary Lee" on Firefly and "'Cause I ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Love You" on Big Top -- none of them hits. ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ He then signed to major label Columbia, ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ issuing three 1961 singles -- "Shake Wid ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ the Snake," the Ben E. King-soundalike ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ "See About Me," and "Now That I Need You" ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ -- that showcased the vast eclecticism of ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ his approach, from retro-doo wop to uptown ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ soul to smoldering R&B. As his recording ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ career refused to catch fire, Covay ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ increasingly focused on songwriting, ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ partnering with fellow Rainbows alum John ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Berry to pen a dance tune called "Pony ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Time" -- recorded by Covay for the Arnold ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ label with backing band the Goodtimers, ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ the resulting 1961 single proved to be his ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ first chart hit, inching to the number 60 ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ spot on the Billboard pop countdown. ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Equally significant, Chubby Checker soon ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ after recorded his own version, topping ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ the pop and R&B charts in early 1962. ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Covay resumed his solo career with 1962's ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ "I'm Your Soldier Boy," his lone effort ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ for Scepter; he then signed to Cameo, ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ scoring another minor chart hit with "The ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Popeye Waddle," a novelty record inspired ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ by New Orleans' "popeye" dance craze. Its ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ 1963 follow-up "Wiggle Wobble" went ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ nowhere, however, as did "Ain't That ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Silly" and "The Froog," both cut for ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Cameo's Parkway subsidiary. At the same ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ time, however, Covay continued an ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ impressive string of songwriting hits, ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ including Jerry Butler's "You Can Run (But ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ You Can't Hide)," Gladys Knight & the ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Pips' "Letter Full of Tears" and Connie ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Francis' "Mr. Twister." He also authored ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ "I'm Gonna Cry," Wilson Pickett's debut ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ single for Atlantic. Covay next landed at ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ the tiny Rosemart label, where he entered ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ perhaps the most creatively rewarding ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ period of his career -- his first single ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ for the label, 1964's "Mercy Mercy," was ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ cut with a then-unknown Jimi Hendrix on ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ guitar, and went on to crack the Billboard ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Top 40 after Atlantic picked it up for ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ distribution. The song remains an R&B ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ classic, and earned even greater notoriety ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ a year later when the Rolling Stones ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ recorded their own rendition for the Out ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ of Our Heads LP; even upon cursory ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ listens, it's impossible not to hear the ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ massive impact of Covay's brash style and ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ bluesy phrasing on Mick Jagger's own ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ frontman persona. In the meantime, Covay ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ squeaked back into the Hot 100 with "Take ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ This Hurt Off Me," graduating to Atlantic ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ on a full-time basis with 1965's "The ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Boomerang." The latter didn't chart at ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ all, but the move to Atlantic gave him ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ access to collaborators including Memphis ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ legends like keyboardist Booker T. Jones ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ and guitarist Steve Cropper, and his music ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ achieved an even more powerfully soulful ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ edge. "Please Do Something" fell just shy ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ of the R&B Top 20, and its follow-up "See ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Saw" proved Covay's biggest hit to date, ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ reaching the R&B Top Five and coming in at ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ number 44 on the pop charts. By now the ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ likes of Etta James ("Watch Dog" and "I'm ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Gonna Take What He's Got") and Otis ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Redding ("Think About It" and ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ "Demonstration") were recording his ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ material, but he could never quite ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ maintain the same momentum as a performer, ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ in 1966 releasing three brilliant Atlantic ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ singles -- "Sookie Sookie," "You Put ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Something on Me" and "Somebody's Got to ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Love You" -- that all failed to chart. The ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ relatively minor "Shingaling '67" at least ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ made it as far as the R&B Top 50, but both ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ "'40 Days-40 Nights"" and "You've Got Me ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ on Your Critical List" sank without a ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ trace. And even though Aretha Franklin ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ scored one of her biggest and most ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ enduring hits in 1968 with "Chain of ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Fools," written by Covay some 15 years ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ earlier, his own recording that same year ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ went nowhere. Covay attempted to reignite ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ his flagging career by organizing the Soul ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Clan, a Murderers' Row of R&B greats that ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ also included Solomon Burke, Joe Tex, Ben ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ E. King and Arthur Conley. The ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ supergroup's lone Atlantic effort "Soul ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Meeting" was a minor pop it, reaching the ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ R&B Top 40 in late 1968. After two more ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ failed solo singles, "I Stole Some Love" ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ and "Sweet Pea," Covay teamed with former ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Shirelles guitarist Joe Richardson and ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ folkie John Hammond in the Jefferson Lemon ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Blues Band, an odd stab at underground ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ blues-rock that yielded a 1969 LP, The ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ House of Blue Lights and hit number 43 on ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ the R&B chart with the single "Black ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Woman." He left Atlantic for Janus in ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ 1970, releasing a second Jefferson Lemon ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Blues Band LP, Different Strokes for ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Different Folks, before signing to Mercury ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ in 1972 as an A&R exec. There he also ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ began work on Superdude, the blistering ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ 1973 album that many groove-heads regard ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ as his masterpiece -- the album yielded a ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ pair of hits, the pop smash "I Was ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Checkin' Out While She Was Checkin' In" ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ and "Somebody's Been Enjoying My Home." ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ The gospel-inspired non-LP single "It's ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Better to Have (And Don't Need)" returned ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Covay to the charts in 1974, followed a ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ year later by "Rumble in the Jungle," a ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ novelty effort inspired by the now- ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ legendary heavyweight bout pairing ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Muhammad Ali against George Foreman. He ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ then migrated to Philadelphia ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ International, teaming with famed ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ producers Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff for ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ 1976's Travelin' in Heavy Traffic -- ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ neither "Right Time for Love" nor the ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ title track charted, and apart from two ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ indie records, 1977's U-Von effort "Back ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ to the Roots" and 1980s Newman release ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ "Badd Boy," it seemed Covay's recording ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ career was over. He didn't resurface until ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ 1986, contributing backing vocals to the ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Rolling Stones' Dirty Work -- in 1993, the ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Stones' Ron Wood repaid the favor, joining ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ the likes of Iggy Pop and Todd Rundgren ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ for the tribute LP Back to the Streets: ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Celebrating the Music of Don Covay. That ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ same year, Covay was honored by the Rhythm ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ & Blues Foundation with one of its ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ prestigious Pioneer Awards, but he was ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ unable to attend the awards ceremony due ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ to the lingering effects of a stroke he ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ suffered in 1992. He gradually regained ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ his health, however, and in 2000 issued Ad ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
▓ ▓ ██▓ ▓ ▓ Lib, his first new studio album in nearly ▓ ▓ ▓ ██▓
