Of the so many things to love about The Belmonts’ (sans Dion) 1972 album “Cigars, Acappella, Candy” is how it totally outs George Harrison for ripping off “He’s so Fine” by interpolating it with “My Sweet Lord” so you can’t unhear it. Four years before the lawsuit too.

She did only the third best version of “I Will Always Love You,” (After Whitney and Dolly) but yeah pretty much true otherwise
