"The passing of Mighty Sam McClain last June marked the end of five decades of beautiful vocal work by this blues and soul legend. Blending deep soul and blues, Sam's last new CD contains 10 originals and one song penned by his longtime friend Melvin Underwood. As the liner notes state, this is not a somber memorial album, it is the final work of a man who wanted us to remember what he and his music were all about"
