King Solomon’s songs
Written by admin on October 21, 2010 – 9:25 pm -Harley Payette looks back on some of the greatest performances of Solomon Burke, who died on October 10.
| “The first time I heard Solomon Burke sing ‘Proud Mary’ I was plain amazed. 2000 miles away this man crawled right up inside my head to learn what Proud Mary’ was all about. Sure it’s great when someone sings your song – but when he understands it, you listen like it was the first time.” John Fogerty |
