Soul music has recently lost two innovators and performers, Solomon Burke and Melvin Bliss. Burke is easily one of the best soul singers of all time, especially within tracks such as "Home In Your Heart" which is one of my favorites from the big fella...
Melvin Bliss was responsible for dropping one of the best break beats ever, and of course just plain killer track, 1973's "Synthetic Substitution." This track has been sampled by countless hip-hop artists such as Wu-Tang, Ultramagnetic MC's, De La Soul and Public Enemy. Rest easy gentlemen, you will be missed...
