Review by Jade Scott-Jones

The album "Don't Go Song For Aretha" by Pretty Purdie & The Playboys is a tribute to the Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin. The album features covers of some of her most iconic songs, such as "Respect" and "Chain of Fools," as well as lesser-known tracks like "Don't Go Breaking My Heart."

The band, led by legendary drummer Bernard "Pretty" Purdie, delivers a tight and soulful performance on each track. Purdie's drumming is the backbone of the album, providing a steady groove that keeps the songs moving along. The rest of the band, including guitarist Billy Butler and saxophonist Seldon Powell, adds their own touches to each song, creating a sound that is both faithful to the original recordings and fresh and exciting.

One of the highlights of the album is the title track, "Don't Go." This song, written by Purdie himself, is a beautiful ballad that showcases the band's ability to slow things down and deliver a heartfelt performance. Another standout track is "Think," which features some impressive guitar work from Butler and a funky horn section that will get listeners up and dancing.

John Bonham liked Purdie.

I wonder who is playing he guitar. Is it Cornell Dupree?
Love You Big Brother! Bugsy

Go see the movie Amazing Grace with Aretha, Bernard, Chuck Rainey and Cornell Dupree. Smokin'!

Aretha could have legitimately taken a restraining order out on Bernie for this... but there's no denying it's a great song. (an instrumental version would have been nice though)
kick- back n chill x
Absolutely mesmerizing
*O* i use to deny god s existance till i saw him when i listened to this song
Bernard "Pretty" Purdie was Aretha's bandleader and drummer after the tragic death of King Curtis. What a fitting tribute to them both! Well said and executed!
Rest in peace to Aretha and Purdie
Thanks KV, it was great.
