Mel Holder is known in the Gospel music world as both a man of faith and an excellent saxophonist. And for his newest recording, he decided to team with a living legend in the soul music world: the great Gerald Alston. Both as the lead singer of the Manhattans and as a solo singer, Gerald has established himself as one of the greatest soul singers of all time.
The two talents have joined together on a song that pleads for the listeners to get back to a time of thankfulness and praise; "Back to Basics."
It is inspiring to hear Gerald Alston sounding as good as ever, and this new song is a nice showcase. The video for "Back to Basics" is our newest SoulTracks First Look. Check it out below and tell us what you think!
