    Even at this late time in his career, far from his TWINIGHT years, this LEGEND of true southern gritty soul funk plays something we nowadays doesn't hear. Pieces Of Peace are so missed here but overall one can just lose everything when listening to SYL plays live.

    J'aime ce moment lorsqu'il se lève, qu'il chante la soul ainsi et qu'il s'exprime à la guitare.
