Richard is my everything. That electric grand has such a distinct sound. It was everywhere in the 80’s but you never hear them anymore. Richards magical sense of rhythm is so on display in this.

[@atlasshrugged1855]

What a voice! And what he does with it. And then there is his musicianship....a master ...

[@mjc1169]

I agree with Marathon592. Richard was a great artist. Sadly, he left us soon after this recording was made. The emotion in his voice is clearly audible. It's not easy to sing with that kind of conviction unless you've "been there", so to speak. Richard is one of my favorites. Thanks to whom ever shared this track.

Excellent!

[@inatizzy2]

Richard had more SOUL than anyone from his time. Still, has more soul than most"Artist" this day who call themselves R and B..... This is TRUE SOUL!!! RIP Richard,,, Gone long before your time. As is Danko too... The "other soulful Canadian" Levon, U still ROCK MY HEART TOO!
