De Dijk and Solomon Burke
Within the late 1900s, soul legend Solomon Burke was alleged to play at a celebration within the Netherlands, however the occasion was canceled on the final minute. Now that the soul legend is within the Netherlands, he appears like taking part in music. And so the horn rings at De Dijk whether or not Burke shouldn’t be allowed to play some songs throughout a live performance of the band. Huub and Hans van der Lubbe are tremendous followers of ’60s soul and would like to play with their inspiration.
After the assembly, each events exchanged numbers. Guitarist JB Meijers particularly stored in contact for a very long time. “De Dijk rocks!”, Burke mentioned a number of instances. “Let’s make a document.” And so it occurred: soul legend of the primary hour Solomon Burke sings quite a few English translations from De Dijk’s oeuvre in a studio in Brussels. The complete album might be launched on 1 January 2010 Maintain On Tight.
Burke and De Dijk had been even going to tour collectively for this document. However sadly Solomon Burke handed away on the airplane to the Netherlands. The tour won’t go forward in its entirety, however Maintain On Tight nobody will take something away from De Dijk anymore.
