This cover is from George Benson's new album Dreams Do Come True.
Benson is performing with the Robert Farnon Orchestra. Lush arrangements and Benson is in full crooner mode. In fact this is an album of covers and is really relaxing. Great album. This link will get you the whole album.
 
One of many covers of this 60's garage song "Little Black Egg" (originally by the Nightcrawlers). This one from Owen Maercks 1978 LP "Teenage Sex Therapist" has the unusual tick tock/ ping pong intro which sounds a bit like a keyboard but apparently is a guitar, an arrangement that was borrowed a couple of years later by The Cars for their version.

Chillout version of what was already a super mellow tune ("Lovin' You" - Minnie Riperton) and given a bit of an eccentric flavor by the big man mumble-singing some of the words.

In 1972 I walked into Readings in Lygon St and heard this song playing. After listening to it, I bought the album. It was my introduction to Peter Frampton and his first album "Winds of Change". I couldn't believe how this person, I had never heard of could be such a great guitarist. Within a couple of years he had the biggest album of the year (and one of the best of all time) with "Frampton Comes Alive". It was in the charts for so long that it made the top 20 albums the following year. Incredible guitar playing on this song. The original is my favourite Stones song but I like Frampton's version even more than the original. Make sure you listen to his playing all the way through, the longer it plays, the better Frampton's guitar playing gets.
