Soul and blues singer Robert Finley's album Goin’ Platinum!, released on Dan Auerbach's Easy Eye Sound label, captures a singer at his prime.

Finley is surrounded by all-time-great session musicians with skill to match his singular voice, including drummer Gene Chrisman (Elvis Presley, Aretha Franklin), keys player Bobby Woods (JJ Cale, Bobby Womack), horns players from Preservation Hall, and legendary guitarist Duane Eddy.
