KEVIN WHEELER/KL&R2 CAMP DEBUTED A NEW TRACK TODAY.

by Dwight L. Quinn

The music pro-lif-er-ators over at the Kevin Wheeler/KL&R2 camp debuted a new track today targeted to the audiences of the world’s leading Soul n' Blues guru, the late great Solomon Burke.

” Launched as a tribute recognizing Mr. Burke's great contribution to the art and to the soul n' blues music industry, Kevin's team's aim is to set out and re-discover the profound life impact of this icon works.

The track was made into a medley of songs selected from a broad collection of world-class hits, made famous by Mr. Burke and were fan favorites exclusively for Soul n' blues users. The KL team titled the new track," The Soul of A Man (Medley of Songs by Solomon Burke) the mix of medelys includes, If You Need Me,Tonights The Night and The Price I had To Pay and clocks in at 4:08 minutes in length.

 The songs intro begins with a thundering drum role that would catch the listener by surprise at first, and the second wave Kevin makes this heart-felt announcement, dedicating the song to Mr. Solomon Burke and praying that he rest-in-peace and then he proceeds on into these touching medlodies of moving songs, consisting of “If You Need Me","Tonights The Night," and" The Price I Had To pay". “The Soul of A Man",(The Medleys of Solomon Burke) will rank high among the great works of Kevin Wheeler & KL&R2.

We commend him for his great courage and love for the art and music to take on such a huge undertaking in the effort to keep the Works of a past legend such as Solomon Burke,alive. It ends with a higher,powerful tenor rises that is the signature of Kevin's large vocal ranges that pushes the song skyward as the minutes ticks down to closing of the popular soul medleys the esteemed brava that Kevin has played to crowds worldwide. 

“I was always a Traditional Quartet Gospel singer before I was making soul tracks,” said Kevin. “The Traditional Quartet Gospel singing is the backbone of soul music. Gospel [have] been the direct contributor, and soul n'blues are the way I can bring fresh sounds to people. Real Soul feeling don’t wait for the right timing, it just lets go.. Soul music gives me an audience of stable adults that LOVE soul and dance music from urban stlye genres. I now have the ability to share that soulful and enlightening vision in its purest form with all my fans.
