Irma Thomas, New Orleans’ Soul Queen, infused “Time Is on My Side” with gospel soul in 1964. Her confident, velvet vocal assures that her lover will come back in time. Irma’s version didn’t chart high, but it inspired The Rolling Stones to record their own take, which became their first U.S. Top 10 hit. Her original remains a gem for soul fans – and the spark behind a rock classic.
