On this day in 1969 {April 20th} "I Shall Be Released" by the Box Tops entered Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart at position #90; eventually it peaked at #67 and spent 5 weeks on the Top 100...Between 1967 and 1970 the Memphis-area quintet had ten Top 100 hits; their two biggest hits were "The Letter" {#1 for 4 weeks in 1967} and "Cry Like A Baby" {#2 for 2 weeks in 1968}...

Was Rick singing back up because the harmony is pretty good for all those years ago.

Great version - but it's "I see my light come shingin", not life.

Great version, except it should be "light," not "life."
