Today’s Music Video Monday is a memorial of sorts.
Daniel Clarke of Crockett Hall says “I’ll Be True” took on new meaning between the time of its recording and release. “It’s a special song to me because I got to work with two friends of mine, Tommy Lee Williams and Ben Cauley,” he says. “Tommy and Ben both played at various times as members of the Memphis Horns and the Bar-Kays. Originally we planned to film this video together but Ben passed away in September. To honor what his friendship and support meant to me any many other musicians in Memphis, Stax gave us permission to film the video under their marquee.”
To honor Cauley’s legacy, all proceeds from “I’ll Be True” will be donated to the Soulsville Foundation. You can purchase the song and make a donation at the Crockett Hall Bandcamp page.
