    His voice is amazing live but I miss the real horns and that 70's feel is gone.

    • @EclecticDiscus
      @EclecticDiscus 7 лет назад +8

      Yeah agree but that 70's feel / sound was the bomb on this song.
      Poor substitute here.

    • @yvesligot7885
      @yvesligot7885 7 лет назад +10

      Just what I was gonna say. It's amazing how 80's destroyed that good organic 70's true funk sound ...

    • @cameroncooper4175
      @cameroncooper4175 6 лет назад +4

      Having to pay horn players helps destroy it too. Four or five more guys would eat up Curtis' profits.

    One of the best dedicated musical geniuses and inspirational, motivational men of our era. As child in the '60's I was so inspired with Curtis's music in such a racially, war-torn era. His music got us through. A wonderful person a true mentor for our youth today. Love you always Curtis thank you for blessing us with your joyous legacy.

    L'âme de curtis c'est l'Influence majeure du funk et du rap !!
    Mayfield a été la clé de voûte de plusieurs révolutions dans la musique pop noire, et son importance dépasse de loin le funk urbain saturé de bongos et guitares wah-wah qu'il écrivit pour le film Superfly ­ l'autre référence du genre, avec Shaft ­, ses emblématiques lunettes à monture de fer, sa barbe poivre et sel ou le son monstrueux qu'il sortait de sa Fender Telecaster.
    En plus de sa carrière solo et de celle qu'il mena longtemps au coeur des Impressions, il fut longtemps compositeur et producteur prolixe, travaillant notamment avec Gene Chandler, Major Lance, Aretha Franklin, les Staple Singers, Gladys Knight, ainsi qu'avec Jerry Butler ­ même après son départ des Impressions

    Great live rendition man Curtis was so personable in his delivery. Craig McMullen complained about another video where they dubbed a studio recording over a live video. I miss the horns being a horn man but loved Curtis singing songwriting. The Impressions were a unique group always with that message of Black awareness but never hate. Nice to feature the musicians.

    Blows my mind how some people like to criticize and I'm a critic! Did the critic stop to think that if the musicians were OK with Curtis that was enough. This sounded good to me even without the Impressions. Some people are never satisfied, no matter what you do.
