I know, that was a great one. Coffey actually introduced the wah wah pedal to Wah Wah Watson. He had a few other minor hits. I think he still plays.
Jet - Are You Gonna Be My Girl (Official Music Video)
The Decemberists - The Sporting Life
Daryl Hall & John Oates - Maneater (Official Video)
The Strokes - Last Nite [Also borrows from Tom Petty]
Are based on this:
The Supremes - You Can't Hurry Love
Technically, the song is written by Holland-Dozier-Holland, but I think the relevant part was created by Jimmy Jamerson and Benny Benjamin.
