About Have You Ever Loved a Woman

Not to be confused with Have You Ever Really Loved a Woman? "Have You Ever Loved a Woman" is a blues song written by Billy Myles and first recorded by American blues artist Freddie King in 1960. The song is performed as a slow blues with King's vocal and guitar accompanied by a small combo of pianist Sonny Thompson, bassist Bill Willis, and drummer Phillip Paul. When it was released by Federal Records in 1961, only the B-side to King's single, "You've Got to Love Her with a Feeling" reached the Billboard Hot 100 pop chart. The song was included on King's first album, Freddy King Sings, also issued by Federal in 1961. more »
