I've never had a retail version of this 45 on the A&M label. I first had the original promo release on Brad Miller's Mobile Fidelity Productions label and I also have a retail version. I also have the promo A&M release pressed on vinyl rather than a styrene copy like this one, To me this should have been a hit. It displays Clare's real talent rather than her wailing like a beached whale on Pink Floyd's DSOTM album.
Her name is *Clare Torry.* This is from 1971. You might remember her as the voice that flows throughout *Pink Floyd's* _"Great Gig In The Sky"_ from *"Dark Side of the Moon"* a few years after this in '73. She never truly got her due, in my opinion. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clare_Torry

Who's the singer on this? This is most famously done by 1970's outlaw country singer Sammi Smith. There have only been one or two other covers.
