Hunter Biden has long been the subject of investigations, mostly by political opponents of his father, President Joe Biden.

While the president has been defensive of his son, the scenario took and unexpected turn Friday when Biden’s own attorney general, Merrick Garland, appointed a special counsel to deepen the investigation.

The developments call to mind the title of a hit song that Smokey Robinson wrote for the Marvelettes: “The Hunter Gets Captured by the Game.”

Over the years, a diverse group of artists have covered the song. Among them are Blondie, Jerry Garcia, Grace Jones and Bette Midler.

For Sharp Notes Monday, here is the original, recorded on Dec. 27, 1966, in Motown’s Hitsville, U.S.A. studio.

As part of our “Sharp Notes, Sharp Thoughts” music and social media project, we share a song every Monday to start your week.
