    To think I just received the CD with Al's first hit, "Back Up Train" from 1967 from Amazon.com 5 days ago, this is truly a timely honor when I think of all those years of great music he produced.

    I still think there are pioneers who should come first before either f them.

    Though I do understand where you're coming from, S.S. I will say this is not quite like the
    Rock and Roll Hall of Fame or other such institutions. It's not the Grammy's either and how
    many pioneers of the music we love are still with us. I'm not saying Al was some major
    innovator on the level of say, James Brown, but he sure carried what we had a long way
    and very well too without much recognition from those outside of the black community
    I'll add. I say give him his flowers while he's still here to smell them. Go, Al!..We love
    you, man....

    Oh, and for soulster...
