    The Roots did “Summertime” with Bobby Womack a while back and it was amazing, so I’m looking forward to this. John sounds great and so do the musicians.

    The arrangement feels very “Isaac Hayes” to me…loves it! Amy Winehouse, Joss Stone…take note: THIS is soul music. Just because you can mimic the sounds, doesn’t mean that the feeling is behind it.

    Bill Withers was so good! Who the hell is the white guy and why is he in the roots?

    Sounds good…most people are not smart enough to appreciate real music.
