This week's #alternateFridayMusic theme is #water.
This is an excellent live version of a soul classic, originally recorded in 1961:
William Bell: You Don't Miss Your Water (a live performance from 2013)

Bell had a concert in Helsinki in 2017, after the release of his wonderful comeback album, "This Is Where I Live", and of course sang this song as well.
This week's #JukeboxFridayNight theme is #WhenTimesAreTough. This is the first song that came into my mind:
Clarence Carter: Patches (1970)

The song had been written by General Johnson and Ron Dunbar, and it had been originally recorded by Johnson's group, the Chairmen of the Board. But it was Clarence Carter's superior version that became a major hit, peaking at #4 on the Billboard pop chart.
