Solomon Burke recorded Nothing's Impossible with Willie Mitchell in his famous Royal Studio in Memphis in late 2009. This record, which was 35 years in the making, unfortunately turned out to be one of the last projects either of these legends would work on. Willie Mitchell passed away in January 2010, while Solomon Burke exchanged this world for the Great Concert In The Sky on the advent of his European tour in October 2010.
While Music On Vinyl and V2 had planned to make this album their first collaborative project, they are now even more aware of its historical importance, and will make sure that it receives the care and attention it is due.
Solomon Burke grew up in the gospel tradition and this remained one of the main influences in his music. Willie Mitchell, who is most famous for his work with Al Green, was fully aware of this. Mitchell wraps Burke's raw emotional delivery in a rich arrangement that keeps Burke's Sunday morning fervor intact while he examines the heart of every song.
This is a record that was long in the making and yet seems effortless, a validation of the greatness of two legends.
