    I'm fighting my own sorrow with Calvin for over a decade now. Never had the oportunity to see him perform live, but the music he left us tells me of a great human being with all the sins and blessings one can do in a lifetime... A true warrior in his heart gave me the strength to overcome a lot of difficulties in my time. This song particulary inspires me to be a better man. That's the power in music, the emotions hidden within.
    ThankYou for everything Calvin and may you rest in peace...

    Als letztes Jahr meine große Liebe starb ,fand ich durch Zufall diese Lied und war so traurig und begeistert ,mein Mann war Soldat und wurde in Afghanistan schwer verletzt und kann mit einem Posttraumatischen Störung nach Deutschland zurück!!Er schwor unter Eid,sein Heimatland zubeschützen ,aber nicht In den sinnlosen Krieg nach Afghanistan geschickt zu werden!!!Er hatte Befehl aus dem Bergepanzer etwas zu kontrollieren aber sah das ein Schnürsenkel nicht fest war und sein "sehr guter Kollege "sagte:Diddy Ich gehe schon!!Das nächste was er hörte war eine Explosion!!!Sein Freund war war auf eine Miene getreten!!Er rannte über 1 Stunde rum und suchte die Beine seines Freundes!!Doch er fand sie nie!!! ""WER KENNT NOCH DIE AUSSAGE:ES IST KRIEG UND KEINER GEHT HIN??!!!!!!😢😢

    I never knew this wonderful musician until 3 wks ago, when I came across this song.,but to know he passed after is rather tragically sad. What a great voice... Lyrics in the song, musical arrangement, but more so that I never listened to him when he was alive. RIP great man.

Tu me répondras, d'où que tu sois, que c'est le cas de bien des bluesmen. Simple comme le blues. 💙 et 💛. Mais tu sais, à mon âge, monsieur Russell , "être simple" c'est tout bon. La simplicité ne tergiverse pas, elle va droit au cœur, et puis elle certifie l'authenticité. Merci Calvin. ;)

I can’t believe he slipped under my radar, but thanks to Oliver his music and legacy will keep him with us every time we listen to his timeless blues. A Sub for Life.

Tryin to keep it simple, real, and as close to the truth as I can. Weapon of choice right now 1970 Martin D-28, also 1978 Guild 12 string. Will be in Austin in fall. September. Glad we share a mutual admiration for a warrior like Calvin. Will be posting some songs on u tube in the next month when I get to Nashville. Would be glad to welcome you if I ever get settled. Take care. Peace my brother in song.

A great, great musician and very humble person. His music has accompanied me since. Listening to soldier very often when driving to work. He passed away too soon. His music will live forever in our hearts. Eddy

    Like you and your brother
    This world is ours
    It's all in our hands

    Fighting the sorrow
    Holding my head up high
    I won't beg steal or borrow
    Oh and if not today
    If not today- If not today
    Then maybe tomorrow
    I'm only a human
    So i'll make my excuses
    But there's one thing I know
    One thing I can see
    It might be to late
    To change where we're goin'
    But in your own mind
    You can always be free
    I'm just a Soldier
    Fighting the sorrow
    Holding my head up high

    I remember Calvin because I have been present at one of his live concerts in Oberwangen, Canton Thurgau in Switzerland about 10 or more years ago, where I bought from him the CD SAM which he signed personally for me and my wife. To my opinion he was a very kind, sympatic and decent person which I have never met again. Moreover I remember his extraordinary deep full voice and of course his simple guitar play during the whole evening which I will never forget.

    Bientôt 11 ans que Calvin nous a quitté... quelques mois avant mon père et mon beau père, terrible année 2011 . J'ai eu le privilège de voir Calvin 5 fois en live, je regrette tellement maintenant d'avoir loupé tant de ses concerts.. .La simplicité reflète bien cette artiste, il se passait quelque chose , vraiment , pendant ses sets. La puissance de ses ballades étaient à la hauteur de sa discrétion, mais il savait aussi nous emmener dans son blues rock !! Il me manque tellement. A 53 piges , j'ai fait des dizaines de concerts et de festoches, mais Calvin restera à part.

      I think a large part of the issue lies with the discreet death of the recording company behind that disk. Because of that, it entirely missed the chance to be present on streaming platforms like Spotify, Deezer or Apple Music. It WAS present on them, but for a mere few months.
      And now, that disc is condemned to remain unheard of with most of the fans, regrettably.
