Description

A great version of The Band's song by the King of Rock n' Soul.

Make Do with What You Got is an album by R&B musician Solomon Burke. It was released on March 1, 2005 on the Shout! Factory and Sony BMG labels. The album was produced by Don Was and was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Blues Album.

One of the great pleasures of Solomon Burke's 2002 "comeback" album, Don't Give Up on Me (Burke never really went away, but this time around folks were paying attention), was the fact it was so unexpected - instead of trying to replicate the sound and feeling of the records Burke made in the 1960s, producer Joe Henry.

After the success of his 2002 comeback album, Don't Give Up on Me, Burke again mines the work of famous songwriters in his quest for authentic, grizzled soul, this time adding a whole lotta funk. He is at ease with his age - a sprightly 64 - and his legend, ad-libbing through the Jagger/Richards song I Got the Blues and advocating old-age lust in the self-penned After All These Years

List of tracks in the album Make Do With What You Got by Solomon Burke. Make Do With What You Got discography.

Solomon Burke’s 2002 album Don’t Give Up on Me was a righteous resurrection of a great Atlantic Sixties soulman who never got his full due from a rock world he so heavily influenced. Make Do With What You Got proves that Burke - whom Van Morrison calls shaman, showman, the teacher and preacher of soul and R&B and country & western in the liner notes - is in the midst of more than a one-album comeback. The band on Make Do, supervised by producer Don Was, delivers slow-burning fire - particularly guitarists Reggie Young and Ray Parker Jr. (who’s hereby pardoned for Ghostbusters )
