Description

ALS penned on the inside of a 5 x 4 'thank you' card, no date (circa 1985). Handwritten letter to a Warner Bros. executive named "Bob," in full: "What would we do without you—Been searching for Soul to Soul ever since I met Prince in '87.' Thanx for comming to the rescue. This was when he fell in love with 'The Voice.' Take You There and Respect was yet to be released. Hope to see you soon." In fine condition.

Soul to Soul is a 1971 documentary film about the Independence day concert held in Accra, Ghana on March 6, 1971. It features an array of mostly American R&B, soul, rock, and jazz musicians, including The Staple Singers, Ike & Tina Turner, Santana, Roberta Flack, and more.
