SOLOMON BURKE AND DE DIJK -HOLD ON TIGHT (180G IMPORT LP)

Solomon Burke And De Dijk Hold On Tight on 180g Import LP

On October 10, 2010, the great Solomon Burke passed away at Amsterdam Schiphol airport on his way to perform a gig with his Dutch collaborators De Dijk. What was supposed to be a release party for their album Hold On Tight then became a celebration of the life of the one true King of Rock 'n Soul. De Dijk, heroes of the Dutch music scene, and Burke met and shared the stage while on tour in 2007, and they came up with the idea to record an album together. True to their word, De Dijk adapted a number of songs from their back catalog for Burke to sing, and they dove into the studio for what sadly turned out to be Solomon's last album. De Dijk's bluesy spin on soulful hard rock turned out to be a sweet musical match with Burke's powerful vocals and Hold On Tight ultimately became of the truest rock 'n' roll projects he ever worked on. Available on vinyl for the first time. Here on 180g gatefold vinyl with printed lyric sheet.
