The Persuasions’ “I Have a Dream” is an acclaimed a cappella gospel-soul track featured on their 2003 album, A Cappella Dreams. The song is a musical adaptation of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s historic speech, with lyrics based directly on his words. The original release did not include part of the moving speech by MLK. Here we have the version including the MLK speech with the blessings of the MLK estate and as Jerry intended. Songwriting credits for this track go to soul music great Solomon Burke and Solomon Burke Jr.
