I'll give you my everything

This guy rules! Burke was an R&B man way back in the day (almost a 'crooner') and when that window of time passed, Burke didn't, he soldiered on for decades keeping the vibe alive. Here is a live performance and he is in fine form playing the title track from an album of a few years back that is one of my favorites of the time. Commanding attention from his throne he looks like a well-preserved version of Marlon Brando, no? The joyous and lovable version I presume.
