<P> Despite its acclaim, legal troubles have haunted the single since its release . A dispute between Cooke's music publisher, ABKCO, and record company, RCA Records, made the recording unavailable for much of the four decades since its release . Although the song was featured prominently in the 1992 film Malcolm X, it could not be included in the film's soundtrack . By 2003, however, the disputes had been settled in time for the song to be included on the remastered version of Ain't That Good News, as well as the Cooke anthology Portrait of a Legend . </P> <P> A live rendition was included in the soundtrack to the 2001 Michael Mann film Ali . James Taylor recorded a version specially for an episode of the same title of the television drama The West Wing . The Allman Brothers Band captured their performance of the song on their 2003 DVD Live at the Beacon Theatre . </P> <P> Other notable artists who have covered the song include: </P> <Ul> <Li> Gerald Alston 2008 </Li> <Li> Baby Huey on The Baby Huey Story 1971 </Li> <Li> The Band 1973 </Li> <Li> George Benson 1979 </Li> <Li> Wayne Brady 2008 </Li> <Li> Billy Bragg 2006 </Li> <Li> Brandy </Li> <Li> Solomon Burke 1986 </Li> <Li> John Boutte 2001 </Li> <Li> Tony Carey </Li> <Li> the Cold War Kids 2007 </Li> <Li> Terence Trent D'Arby </Li> <Li> Gavin DeGraw 2003 </Li> <Li> Matt Doyle </Li> <Li> Bob Dylan 1979 </Li> <Li> Everlast 2011 </Li> <Li> The 5th Dimension (in a 1970 medley with The Rascals' "People Got to Be Free") </Li> <Li> Aretha Franklin from "I Never Loved a Man the Way I Love You" 1967 </Li> <Li> the Fugees 1996 </Li> <Li> Jeffrey Gaines </Li> <Li> The Gits </Li> <Li> Al Green 1996 </Li> <Li> Greta Van Fleet 2017 </Li> <Li> Deitrick Haddon </Li> <Li> Morten Harket </Li> <Li> Beth Hart </Li> <Li> jacksoul 2006 </Li> <Li> Leela James 2005 </Li> <Li> R.
