The First Cut is the Deepest was written by Cat Stevens. Rod Stewart had the biggest hit with his cover of it.

Also associated with Steve Marriott and Small Faces. She’s great.

Interesting that Rod Stewart’s cover was the most successful, as I’ve never even heard of it. will have to check it out. Thanks.

I had no idea Merrilee Rush didn't author Angle of the Morning.

Had a High School crush on her.

[Avalon Memories]

The First Cut is the Deepest is one of Rod Stewart’s signature songs, possibly THE signature song of his career.

[ChildOfThe60s]

I liked Cat Stevens, I liked Rod Stewart in his Faces days, I never liked this tune

[ought-six]

It’s a good version, but I still like Linda Ronstadt’s version from the 1973 “In Concert” performance.

[SharpenedEdge]

Rod Stewart nailed it. Sheryl Crow’s cover is also excellent.

I thought this was a thread about that Hollywood star, Arnold Ziffel

[daku]

Excellent
