I don't own a copy of this, and actually found it hard to find a copy of a "whole album" video on youtube which is just so bloody annoying because as I had to go between videos it keeps throwing up ads at the start of them, or you get videos that honestly have a 30 second soundless thing of a record clicking into place in a jukebox before starting the song, so you don't get the proper flow of the album.
Anyway, those gripes aside, another soulful amazing singer whom I'd not heard of before now! He feels like that, kind of mid point between soul, rhythm n blues, and a touch of doowoop. Like an earlier iteration of Marvin Gaye.
Burke is an interesting guy too. He had apparently been a certified mortician, a televangelist... and father to 21 children!
