Re: interesting obituary for soul music fans
Thanks Steely, Did'nt know he had past away, He has left a fantastic legacy, in the form of not just the great music he o produced, but of the names he made famous,although he was a ruthless business man , some of the deals with Stax, most of the big names in soul would'nt have made it without him. God bless Jerry, & thanks.

Re: interesting obituary for soul music fans
Thanks for the news, SJ. I can only echo what Al has said. I like his quote about music: "Music has brought me joy; it has given me a beat and a groove, it has sent me down righteous roads." Me too!
RIP Jerry and thanks for hundreds of great records.
