The self-proclaimed "King of Rock 'n' Soul" upholds his title on this follow-up to his 2002 Grammy-winning comeback, Don't Give Up on Me. At 64, Solomon Burke's voice still has an electric crackle. Every low purr and keening near-falsetto that he applied to a string of hits between 1961 and 1968 that helped build Atlantic Records remains intact. In fact, if anything, he's more persuasive and versatile today. Burke breathes zestful life into material as diverse as the opening stomp, "I Need Your Love in My Life," the testifying "Let Somebody Love Me," a sweet reading of the Band's "It Makes No Difference," and Hank Williams Sr.'s country-gospel "Wealth Won't Save Your Soul"--the latter of which Burke, who's an ordained bishop, takes to church with a soaring organ-driven arrangement.Producer Don Was draws on the classic Stax and Muscle Shoals sounds, using keyboards and guitars--the latter played by Ray Parker Jr. and Shoals veteran Reggie Young--to underscore Burke's powerful vocal melodies. And the bloodlines of classic Memphis propulsion run through drummer James Gadson's veins. With such superb accomplices Burke doesn't just make do... he makes great music. --Ted Drozdowski
Album Description
A classic soul album from the GRAMMY-winning legend! Produced by Don Was and featuring brand-new songs by Van Morrison and Dr. JohnOne of the most powerful and original voices in the history of soul music, Solomon Burke continues his career renaissance with Make Do With What You Got. Produced by celebrated studio auteur Don Was (The Rolling Stones, Bonnie Raitt), and featuring veteran soul musicians such as Ray Parker Jr. and Reggie Young, Make Do With What You Got is a return to Burke's soul roots after the Grammy-winning 2002 album Don't Give Up On Me. Like its predecessor, the album contains songs by some of rock's finest songwriters: Bob Dylan, Jagger/Richards, Van Morrison, Robbie Robertson, Dr. John, and others. Also included is a personal introduction by Van Morrison.

Heading back to Nashville........2007-05-14
"Make Do With What You Got" is a huge let down especially when one considers the other two CDs that bookend this one - the very good "Don't Give Up On Me" (which contains a much better reworking of a Van Morrison song than this CD does - namely "Fast Train") and the excellent "Nashville", which enjoys extraordinary production values, a smoking band and a commanding Burke.
"Make Do" is middling Burke. Barely passable actually, saved only by the fact that it is Burke singing despite Ray Parker Jr's constant clam blowing and Was' white bread production.

Burke is a soul singer in the truest sense of the word, but he also an artist willing to take risks and stretch himself toward new territories. "I Need Your Love in My Life" opens the album, and it is uncanny how much it rocks like a long-lost Big Star track, only with Burke's authoritative presence replacing Alex Chilton's keening tenor. A few familiar tunes appear here, but all are reformulated into something surprising and original. Bob Dylan's "What Good Am I?" (from Dylan's excellent "Oh Mercy" album) is especially surprising, wrapped in a funky shuffle that manages to suggest Jean Knight's "Mr. Big Stuff", while adding a lighter shade to one of Dylan's more pensive compositions. Rick Danko's (another keening tenor) interpretation of Robbie Robertson's "It Makes No Difference" will always remain definitive, but Burke's powerful interpretation brings the song into a new light, bringing gospel overtones that Danko never could have suggested. Gospel music informs virtually everything on this record, but you can virtually feel the church surround you on tracks like "Fading Footsteps", "At the Crossroads" and "Wealth Won't Save Your Soul". Even The Jagger-Richards composition "I Got the Blues" sounds like it is emanating from a Memphis church.
Back in the `60s, Solomon Burke was the lifeblood for artists like the Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan and the Band, providing inspiration and sometimes material for their careers. Forty years later, times have changed quite a bit, and the situation has reversed. I am convinced that there is still an audience for intelligent, heartfelt and compassionate soul music, especially when such great material is entrusted to a super-talented legend like Solomon Burke. Commercial radio programmers might not know it, but I do, and I hope you will take time to discover this for yourself as well. A- Tom Ryan
A measure of r&b, a dash of the blues and a whole lotta soul.......2005-10-25
It is a mystery to me why Solomon Burke never became a bigger star. I would compare him to Charlie Rich, another incredibly gifted artist who had a highly successful career but never quite made it to the top. It seems to me that both men made a conscious decision many years ago to simply sing the songs they loved to sing. Since they both refused to be pigeon-holed into any one genre the record companies simply didn't know what to do with them. "Make Do With What You Got" only reinforces my admiration for Solomon Burke. The man can still belt out a tune with the best of them. And kudos to the excellent work of the backup band as well. If you are like me and have not heard a Solomon Burke recording in a long time then you are in for a real treat. Recommended.

If you are familiar with Timi's music, you will know what to expect. If not, you should start with the other CD or, better still, buy both together.
There are original songs here, but there are also great covers of It's just a matter of time (Brook Benton), I'll never fall in love again (Tom Jones), When something is wrong with my baby (Sam and Dave), Hallelujah I love him so (Ray Charles), I apologise (originally recorded by Bing Crosby in 1931 and revived by Billy Eckstine in 1951, but a sixties hit for P J Proby) - Timi's version was the B-side of Hurt so pre-dates P J Proby, All my love belongs to you (Little Willie John), If you gotta make a fool of somebody (an American hit for James Ray and a British hit for Freddie and the Dreamers) and I waited too long (LaVern Baker). There are only two country songs here, these being I just got back from there (Billy Walker) and When you were mine (Justin Tubb).
This is yet another brilliant Timi compilation from the good people at RPM. Unless some company releases a box set or a series of twofers, the 52 tracks on these two British compilations will remain the most comprehensive study of Timi's music on CD.
As no track listing is available at the time of this review, here it is :-
1 Interlude (Time) - studio version

Album Description
The Freak Mountain Ramblers keep alive the kind of music that the Holy Modal Rounders, Michael Hurley, Jeffrey Frederick, and The Clamtones have brought to the non-mainstream folk/country/rock listeners around the world. In fact, there are three former Rounders on the CD (bassist David Reisch, drummer Roger North, and guest saxer Teddy Deane), along with two of Portland's best singer/songwriters, Jimmy Boyer and Kevin (Bingo) Richey. The CD carries a soulful live feel too rarely caught in the studio, and while the subject matter and mood of the individual songs ranges from humorous to macabre to pensive, the collection as a whole has a rich dark texture to it that lingers long after the last song has ended.Band members: Jimmy Boyer - guitar, lead and harmony vocals
Kevin (Bingo)Richey - guitar, lead and harmony vocals
David Reisch - bass, lead and harmony vocals
Roger North - drums, congas
Forest Bloodgood - fiddle
Paul Bassett - washboard

I Guess I'm the Designated Solomon Reviewer.......2006-09-28
All these songs are among his best, so you do get a solid string of quality, beginning with what was certainly his biggest hit, Got To Get You Off My Mind, which is a catchy and snappy tidbit of soul history. It is not my absolute favorite Solomon song, but it's a goodie. Should you care, the winner of my favorite is Goodbye Baby (Baby Goodbye), a maudlin time-capsule where his baritone growl will rattle your speakers.
But look at the 2 CD collection "Home In Your Heart," a 41 track winner, or my personal choice, the "If You Need Me/Rock 'n' Soul" 2 on 1 package, which rolls through 23 blistering tracks like a loaded freight train. Solomon has become somewhat self-indulgent recently, seemingly granted esteemed elder-statesman rank merely because he didn't die, but back in the 60s and 70s, he was something special. Wonderful arrangements, backup singers you can easily visualize swaying in their matching mini-skirts, skillful musicians throughout, judicious use of the baritone sax, and his unique voice all combined to make a package that lives on quite well. He could do it, and on these 10 songs, he did.
