description: "Arthur Alexander was an American country-soul singer and songwriter. Jason Ankeny, music critic for AllMusic, said Alexander was a \"country-soul pioneer\" and that, though largely unknown, \"his music is the stuff of genius, a poignant and deeply intimate body of work on par with the best of his contemporaries.\" Alexander's songs were covered by such stars as the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Gerry and the Pacemakers, Otis Redding, Tina Turner, Pearl Jam, Rick Nelson and Jerry Lee Lewis."
