An overlooked cover tune XII

When you hear the song title, "Last Train To Clarksville," you probably think of the reasonably catchy version by The Monkees.  George Benson's version also deserves its due, however.  Benson and company prove that the tune, when performed at a faster tempo, works just as well for guitar, organ, and brass.  When I hear Benson's version, I think, "There's a train that will definitely get you to your destination on time, or more likely, early.  Saying that the locomotive chugs right along doesn't do it justice."  You might hear it every once in a great while on a good traditional jazz or smooth jazz station.
