"THE PUSHER" live - Nina Simone or Steppenwolf?

Was listening to Nina's yesterday, got me wondering how Steppenwolf sounds doing it live. The Steppenwolf version is from soon after Hurricane Katrina, couldn't find an old live version from them in their prime...

Great performances from both, I adore the grit in their voices on these lyrics & melody bananadance





heart prince I never met you, but I LOVE you & I will forever!! Thank you for being YOU - my little Princey, the best to EVER do it prince heart
