I did not know this was ever covered, but this “R&B” version came out about 3 weeks after the original

Sly & Robbie doing electric era Miles Davis
 
This was a pretty good album; they had some good collaborators including Bernie Worrell and Manu Dibango. Bill Laswell produced, and I think this was when they started working with him.

Is this a cover? Paul McCartney pitched the song to her, and her version came out months before the Beatles' version. I was not aware of this and had never heard it before today.
