Bobby Womack is a legend - a phenomenally gifted singer, songwriter, and guitarist with 40 albums and 30 million record sales to his name. A prot?g? of Sam Cooke, Womack wrote classics that include "Lookin" for a Love" and "It"s All Over Now" (a smash-hit for the Rolling Stones). Their success helped make him a star, but ongoing battles with drugs and the record industry nearly destroyed him. Behind his music lies a life scorched by tragedy, beginning with his impoverished childhood in Cleveland, to his years touring and recording with the greats - including James Brown, Jimi Hendrix, Sam Cooke, Aretha Franklin, Wilson Pickett, Eric Clapton, and Elvis Presley - and through the years of drugs, partying, and riotous abuse, this is the authentic voice of a major soul artist.
