Music Monday: Ain’t No Love in the Heart of the City
Posted by chris | Filed under Music Monday, music
This song has come a long way…
The orginal song first recorded in 1974 by the R&B Band Bobby Blue Band.
In 1978 a hardrock band by the name of Whitesnake did a cover.
In 2001 Jay-Z’s sampled the orginal sound and did a song called In The City (Ain’t No Love).
Here is the instrumental version with you just the singin’ on it – super calm and relaxing. Enjoy.
If you wanna read up on some more cover version -head on over to wikipedia.
