    Dude, this guy is the real deal.

    I saw him at The State Room (a small theater in SLC) last October and the show was top fucking notch. THe guy is a showman for sure and his voice is unreal. I'm just shocked to know that he has just barely hit it big and he's in his 60's.

    Great music from this guy. It's nice to see people discovering him and appreciating the type of soul/funk he does.

    He does a great cover of Neil Young's "Heart Of Gold" too.

    I was first introduced to Charles Bradley through that Nirvana cover. It blew me away. Checked out his album after that.

    Saw him at Outside Lands last August and he was great. Really enjoyed the "Heart of Gold" cover he did. Very appropriate for SF.

    His life story is unbelievable as well.
    Love this tune:
