  • Description

    Elemental Music, together with Universal Music Group, present the best selection of Jazz, R&B, Soul and Funk out of print titles from the vaults of classic labels. Mini-LP gatefold replica sleeves; digitally remastered audio. This Elemental Music release presents one of the two only albums that Solomon Burke released on the Chicago label Chess Records between 1975 & 1976: the underrated masterpiece Music to Make Love By. This is an incredible record a real standout in Solomon s career. It features the genius of 'King Solomon' working with arrangements that are smooth, mellow, and sexy very much in the Barry White and Isaac Hayes mode, a style that's a perfect fit for Solomon s voice, which was warm and deep back when White and Hayes were just kids! Gene Page (who also used to work with Barry White) helped Solomon with some of the arrangements. Solomon Burke said soul music is 'life itself, the very blood running through your veins, and it s your heartbeat'. It is this very sentiment that runs through the entire album. Among the highlights are the essential 'Everlasting Love', 'Music To Make Love By', 'Midnight & You', 'You & Your Baby Blues', and 'Let Me Wrap My Arms Around You'.
