Let's Stay Together! Written/recorded in 1971 by Al Green, Willie Mitchell, and Al Jackson Jr. Covered by many! But I'm guessing no one quite had greater chart success with it than did the great Tina Turner. Such a masterpiece, too big for the ukulele really but, well....I gave 'er a shot, and I hope you'll enjoy this American classic!
