know the blues... Records
Rockie Charles - Have
You Seen My Uncle Steve- The self-proclaimed President of
Soul is back with his latest release that is equal parts old-style soul and
funky blues. Rockie has a voice that had me confusing him with Al Green the
first time I heard it. The former tugboat captain has taken on a personal
crusade to remain true to the fading legacy of soul music. He wrote all twelve
songs on the disc, handles the lead vocals and the guitar. If you need plenty of
instrumental solos, look elsewhere. Rockie sings songs that tell a story - his
story, in a voice that pleads to be heard. His latest is an honest testament to
his talent and merits a listen if you your tastes fall on the soulful side of
the blues.
