When the Box Tops released their one-hit-wonder "The Letter" in 1967, I was just 15 years old and had been on stage with my first band for almost 2 years. As we didn't have any songs of our own, we covered English and American bands, as was usual at the time. And of course "The Letter" was also on our playlist. More than 55 years later, I decided to do another cover again as a reminder of my first steps into the world of rock and pop music.´Though Joe Cocker did an unforgettable jazz cover with horns and choirs in 1970, I deliberately chose the Box Tops version because it best reflected the trend of the "upbeat music" of those years. As always, Karsten hit the black and white keys perfectly.
