Solomon Burke

Burke later met his next manager and fiancée Tamiko Jones at the Memphis studio. In 1972 he recorded the soundtrack to two films Cool Breeze and Hammer. He's a great actor.

In 2001 Burke was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a performer. By 2005 Burke was credited with selling 17 million albums. Due to Burke's minimal chart success in comparison to other soul music greats such as James Brown Wilson Pickett and Otis Redding Burke is often described as the genre's "most unfairly overlooked singer" of its golden age.
