Apparently an unissued earlier version, and a good excuse to make a vague connection to #halloween. Happy drunken Halloween, everyone!

"botei uma macumba em tu..." #gotta #love #halloween:)
Recorded by many, notably Nina Simone, this is the original version by the man who wrote it. Hawkins had originally intended to record "I Put a Spell on You" as a refined love song, a blues ballad. He reported, however, that the producer "brought in ribs and chicken and got everybody drunk, and we came out with this weird version... I don't even remember making the record. Before, I was just a normal blues singer. I was just Jay Hawkins. It all sort of just fell in place. I found out I could do more destroying a song and screaming it to death. #Classic #HopeYouLikeIt
