One of the true legends of music is Mr.Jerry Butler,who has been around the music scene for over sixty, years, starting out with The Impressions with-For Your Precious Love and after going solo had a great string of hits in the Sixties-Seventies-Eighties..the question of the day is this..Do you have a favorite tune from-The Iceman? mine is-Mr.Dream Merchant.

I've never heard of him but it sounds great! When I read "Ice Man" my mind initially went to my old boss who was in his 80's back in the 1980s. He told me about an "Ice Man" record he once had full of ribald humor. Obviously not the same guy.

When I think "Iceman" it will always be Albert Collins, the "Master of the Telecaster" ;)
