Great album - I loved it. I bought it because some recommended his music to me, and told me it was very similar to Al Green. Well, I am a big Al Green fan, and I wasn't disappointed with this album . Solomon Burke is a great soul singer, and is able to send that little shiver down your spine every now and then when he hits the note just perfectly. Definitely nine out of ten and four stars. Am now looking out for other albums from Mr Burke - I read that Rock 'n' Soul from 1964 is also an excellent album.

I loved this book
Still struggling with this book. It is very hard going. even the concepts behind it are difficult to grasp. I wouldn't recommend this book unless you have a working knowledge of philosophy, sociology and quantum physics.

Men of Tomorrow - A "Super" Book!
Ever wondered how Superman came into existence? Ever wondered how his originators got shafted and caught up in the politics of the day and never received all their full royalties for all the radio shows, movies, merchandising and other spin-offs that Superman delivered to DC Comics? Read this book - it is all revealed, together with information about how all the major superheroes had their origins - cooked up in the middle of the night, slaved over and presented to the publishers with almost impossible deadlines met - low pay - no copyright protection - a tale of American capitalism and greed, but more than that, a beautiful story about how good ideas, idealism and good characters will survive despite all the obstacles. I loved this book - 10/10 to the author.
