you were always down with the get downs, dear Solomon Burke, and lucky for us you left us with all your great performances. Yup, we all have a broken heart since we have been apart. We will always be lovin' you, bro
The guy was awesome. He was, as Jerry Wexler said, really the greatest soul singer of his time. His phrasing, presence and vocal style were practically umatched and very often imitated. R.I.P the King of Rock n' Soul!!! Your immortal spirit will live on forever along with your catalog of work.
I saw him a few years ago, he is one of those legends where you don't have to know of him or what he has done in the past, as soon as he sings you know you are in the presence of someone special. Mary would have been proud of this performance!
Tamla Motown artists had indescibable voices, sole unique in own kind. The feeling, the mood generated by tonqs & tonsils ... so wonderful ... I can't stop lovin' ... Maybe something will be from it ... Maybe ... Yesterday!
OK, I comitted mayby mistake but it is light important. I think much more important is it that Solomon, the "King of Rock 'n' Soul" & "Bishop of Soul", has still given us so much pleasure! Tamla or Atlantic ... and what ... Hugs bro!
+TheWiegos I just googled it and Burke began by recording for Atlantic records. He then moved to Bell for a couple of albums, then to MGM and after that he kind of bounced around on a number of different labels.
One of the greatest singers from the greatest era of music, the 60's! Comparing this to the so called music of today is like comparing a stone to a diamond, they don't make music like this anymore!
Okay Boys and Girls, todays lesson is how to really perform a great song 101. We ain t Glee we' re the real deal. My My Mr Burke, you indeed sold it. As you always did. Wish you were still here to teach the young and foolish. And disrespectful. Such class you had. James Brown spoke of you often. Yes., I am an Augusta Ga man that was friends with JB. I was a Country artist. But the music speaks for itsseft.
Rest in Peace Sol...We lost another great when you were called home..My first memory of you was when I was this skinny little girl from Alabama listening to you while my older siblings danced to your music...
I can't believe this... I just heard his song at the end of a movie this am .. and looked it up on youtube ... and he has just died. This is strange .... never listened to him before in my life .... and I'm 62. He was more that great! RIP!
I'm not going to tell you to rest in peace...For there is no rest in Heaven...Souls do not need to rest...I will tell your body to rest in peace, until the Judgment day...So I will tell you to walk around Heaven all day...You've gone on to join that Heavenly choir...Sing praises to our Heavenly Father Solomon....I'll see you when I get there....
WOW....I am amazed...how quick folks have responded to the news of Solomon's death[not just here on UA-cam]...this gives me a warm feeling inside...knowing people out there in the real world...are still diggin' the music and the message of what SOUL is all about..."Can I get an AMEN ???"
Wonderful singer, A+, nothing better than rock and soul. We miss a lot of those singers, Otis Redding, Marvin Gaye, and so man others. Music today doesn't have the same kind of meaning. Back in the 50's and 60's again.
Van Morrison is also one of my favorite singer/songwriters. These two artists and a few others, can take a good simple song and add the raw emotion to make it hit my soul. Amazing, yes.
Belo, belo vocal deste grande astro americano linda interpretação... Pena que no Brasil poucos conhecem estes astros que são mundialmente reconhecidos. Viva SALOMON BURKE, viva a boa musica internacional que atravessa fronteiras e embala os corações apaixonados. Viva os anos 50,60,70,e 80.

R I P Solomon. Didnt realise how many great songs he was responsible for, he shall be sadly missed.
Sometimes I Wonder Wat Young People Think!... When, They Hear This Oldie! ...2021 He Might Be Gone!..But, Hes Still Sounds Awesome! Tu Meke!
Elvis sang this with a real passion but solomon takes it to another level
I tell my wife of 44 years this all the time, and I'll never stop loving her!!❤️
you were always down with the get downs, dear Solomon Burke, and lucky for us you left us with all your great performances. Yup, we all have a broken heart since we have been apart.
We will always be lovin' you, bro

I agree. He is awesome.
Yes he is one of the greatest singers of all time 👍🏽❤️❤️

Just read that Solomon Burke died on his way to a concert in the Netherlands. What a shame. R.I.P.
LORD HAVE MERCY!.. SING IT BABY!!
And can he sing it?
Where has Solomon Burke been all my life. Just recently discovered him. He is superb. He hasn't gotten his due.
He's in Heaven❤
Most underrated singer of all time
Tamla Motown artists had indescibable voices, sole unique in own kind. The feeling, the mood generated by tonqs & tonsils ... so wonderful ... I can't stop lovin' ... Maybe something will be from it ... Maybe ... Yesterday!
You do realise Solomon Burke was never signed to Motown?
OK, I comitted mayby mistake but it is light important. I think much more important is it that Solomon, the "King of Rock 'n' Soul" & "Bishop of Soul", has still given us so much pleasure! Tamla or Atlantic ... and what ... Hugs bro!
Don't be silly. I wasn't putting you down. It's a common mistake, I see. I think most people assume all soul music = Motown. ;)
Once again, I put my foot in it ... Best wishes!

Van Morrison,my favourite white soul,r & b singer would love this version.
