The action man is softened. He's revealing a part of him that has nothing to do with violence. Best known for his unique style of fighting in many action flicks, Steven Seagal still has a heart anyway.

The movie star reportedly is recording his first album ever, something that is very incompatible with what he's done so far. He says "Blues is my real passion, and I've always wanted to do a blues record. I've had very close relationships with a lot of the great legends, many of whom I got to play with."

Seagal is said to have been secretly recording "Mojo Priest" in Memphis, Tennessee with the help of many talented people, including the members of Muddy Waters band. Hoping to complete the album by the end of this year, he would shortly thereafter perform the tracks at fellow Morgan Freeman's Zero club in Clarksdale, Mississippi on New Year's Eve.
