    This is a living legend been in the business for 50 years and has so many great hits and and has worked with so many other artist he's a song writer composer singer and a gifted musician I wasnt even born when he first started recording but my parents played his music as I grew up I was so into his music he captures the very core of Soul music and now he has been diagnosed with early alzheimer's symptoms I pray that he retains as much of his memory as possible he is truly my inspiration.

    Bobby's voice and lyrics are like a fine wine-they get better with age.

    Rest in peace, man. I discovered him a few weeks before he passed and I was so sad. He makes brilliant music

    My god was I really 17 when my dad showed me this album? I remember he went out that night and left me this album, I smoked some weed and was not expecting it to be as mind blowing as it was.
    Fantastic album from start to finish.
    RIP Bobby Womack

    Bobby Womack is a legend! One of the alltime greats of soul music. You can't front on his body of work as a singer/songwriter and session musician.

    Bobby Womack is a legend....... he's played with nearly every one from the 50's to now, new Sam Cook, married his widow........... great guitarist and wrote/played for Janis Joplin.........

    Production on this is wicked, Damon is a genius and Bobby's voice sounds great.

    Love Bobby, love the way he would talk to us in the intro of many of his songs. He had so much to say. ❤

    Being a fan for 35 years doesn't give you a more valid opinion of this track. And neither do capitals. The production work here is interesting and lets Bobby's (amazing) voice sing through.

    All of you commenting negatively about this record are OBVIOUSLY NOT musicians!! If you were, you would know that this is a brilliant and inspired collaboration between Bobby and Damon and the other musicians who have blended old-school soul and new musical forms, creating the best album I have heard in years! And yes...I am a musician.

    This is the best thing I've heard Damon do in a while. And of course Bobby Womack is the best.

    Both the tracks released of the album so far are brilliant! Albarn and Womack are a great match, without Albarn, Womack said himself he wouldn't have made a new album. i think it's a masterpiece.

    I don't care who put it together. Bobby was sick, very sick and he was depressed because he had so many problems and as we age things look bleaker and more bleak. This isn't the first time that Bobby has worked with Damon Albarn! Thank goodness because he knew just what to do, from prior experience. It's also why the project is so
    superior. I've been listening to Bobby Womack a long time He sounds fabulous; he has Hope and Faith in his voice and his attitude !

    So many artist try to make music in a new style after 30-40 years and it flops because only in their original style from their era they sound good, but not Mr.Womack his 2000+ material was awesome. RiP

    Hey Robert Dwayne.....now this album title truly describes you. To have "walked on hot coals" throughout your life whether it was all of the red tape before you can get on stage...or....your personal life...you always got to the finish line and won. Treat yourself like the "new person" that our Heavenly Father re-created because HE knows that you have so much more to give us. Keep smiling ANGELS KISSES.

    The bravest man in the universe
    Is the one who has forgiven first
    The bravest man in the universe
    I got a story I want to tell
    Gather round me
    Gather round me boys and girls
    I once was lost
    But now I’m found
    When I beer up so high
    I always know how to come down
    The bravest man in the universe
    Is the one who has forgiven first
    Yeah
    Shame on me, shame on you
    It’s up to us
    What we say and what we do
    Would you stay in the sun
    Would you stay in the sun much too long
    You try to find the shade
    Shade that makes you feel at home
    The bravest man in the universe
    Is the one who can forgiven first
    The bravest man in the universe
    Oh ah
    The bravest man in the universe

    The only sample is in the beginning and in the end where the woman says "the bravest man in the universe". And if you have been a fan for so long you should 1) be able to be open, 2) expect artists to change in some other direction thoughout his/her carrier.

    Damon Albarn is a great composer-producer-artist... If you want to stay in the past, go listen old soul records.Do not fear evolution of music! I found that album very nice, and i am glad that in 2013 there is something that can continue the lost-soul tradition so well. Excuse for my bad english!

    What a magical and WISE comment. If you've seen Chris Brown's video "Don't Judge Me" (I'm old enough to be his grandmother almost, but I checked him out)at any rate, the video for that song, should have been made for this whole suite of songs, but this ONE especially. Of course, it's only my opinion, your comment put it together for me.
