On this day in 2010, we lost Solomon Burke — the mighty “King of Rock ’n’ Soul.” With “Cry to Me” and “Everybody Needs Somebody to Love,” he built the bridge between R&B and soul, sang like a preacher, and ruled like royalty.

Happy Birthday Thelonious Monk! “Monk was an enigmatic guy, but he was one of the best people I’ve known, completely honest, and he took a liking to me and took me under his wing, and years later I was able to see that he influenced me in many things.” –S.R. (2007)
