Rock ’n Soul

Old love movie songs

not my kind of music but good i uess

Rock and Soul is always a great combo!

Great voice. Songs that aren’t memorable though.

Decent, just nothing that stood out to me

It was just a classes soul record with nothing special, but nothing bad. Nice simple listen with the first half carrying a huge part.

Rock 'n SOUL.... CRY to me... I see what's happening here.

This was better than I thought it'd be for a guy I never heard of. Sounds more like 50s than 60s, which I like. Very mellow, but not too sleepy. Nearly a 4.

Highlights: 'Cry to Me', 'You Can't Love Them All'

I’m sure this was an amazing album for its time, but I always rate these based on how much I enjoy them and how much I’d want to listen to them again. This type of music is just not my thing. It’s good, just not something I’d personally listen to, but I’m still glad when I’m able to find stuff like this on this list.

Usually, when I get something I don’t like, it’s atrocious, basically the same British or American rock or folk band over and over again. It’s nice to have a change of pace. This is actually relaxing and nice. This guy has an amazing voice. Even though it’s not my cup of tea, I had a nice time listening to this. It's warm and cozy. Great experience.

Classy. It'll never be one of my favourites. It's just too old fashioned for me. It still a pleasurable listen though cos its got class.

No rock here, only soul, which is not my favourite genre. He has a nice voice, but aside from that nothing about this album grabs my attention.

Favorite track(s): Cry to Me, Can't Nobody Love You, You're Good for Me

Great, rich voice. I enjoyed it for the most part, but no real surprises in the arrangements or song choices.

It's crazy that it's 60 years old and feels like it's even older than that.

But he has a good voice, the songs are fine, and I didn't hate it.

What a voice.

The quality seems to dive a bit in the 2nd half of the (very short) album, but the openers are amazing.

Had some good qualities but sounded repetitive!

Trotz Burkes kraftvoller Stimme bleibt das Album hinter seinen Möglichkeiten zurück. Die Songauswahl wirkt uneinheitlich, und der emotionale Tiefgang fehlt oft.

Very enjoyable classic soul. This is definitely an album I want to listen to again.

Classic soul.

I'd never heard of Solomon Burke but I came to really appreciate him over the course of an album - he has a great variety of sounds and strengths across the album. I'm glad this album was on the list!!

This album is an easy listening soul record. Some aspects of it are dated, but Burke's versatile and emotional voice makes up for it. The combined effect is a nice, relaxing record to listen to after a long day.
