    Hold On Tight's horn-spiked blues-rock is outfitted with more raucous textures than its balladic predecessor, yet De Dijk manage to smooth out Burke's craggy, weathered croak. King Solomon, R.I.P.

    It's a stronger and more satisfying piece of work than most of his other post-millennial albums, and it's the closest thing he managed to a truly effective rock & roll collaboration; it's an impressive finale to a genuinely remarkable career.

    For his part, Burke invests the songs with a force and passion that remains unabated. What a marvelous note for the King of Rock and Soul to leave us on.
