It has been covered before by various artists, but Cab's is the definitive (and the original). For an excellent live performance, rent or watch 'The Blues Brothers' with John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd. There is a fantastic (although edited) version of this song performed by Cab, along with other great performances by Aretha, James Brown, Ray Charles, and Willie Dixon.

OK, I don't usually think enough of things like this to bother posting about them, but this really was an odd coincidence, I thought. While shopping at my local Giant last night, the Muzak piped over the PA system included first Mistra, then a few minutes later, Lose that Girl. Now around here, it's rare enough to hear Mistra Know-it-All, at ALL, much less in your local grocery store, in *Muzak* form.

Giant is just ultra-progressive since they were bought by that Dutch company. Or something. :) (This is Super G for those of you in SE PA, DE, and S. NJ.)
