For your listening pleasure, a great rare track from the legendary King Curtis, the famed saxophone player best remembered for his high octane solo on The Coasters hit "Yakety Yak" who then went on to front his own R&B unit, The Kingpins, scoring hits like "Memphis Soul Stew" and cultivating great session players like Cornell Dupree, Jerry Jemmott and Bernard Purdie. He then became Aretha Franklin's musical director before a glorious career came to a tragic end when he was murdered in August of 1971. Curtis has not been forgotten however, he was nominated into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2000. Here is "Instant Groove", which showcases the burning R&B Curtis was best known for. That's him doing the speaking on the track too.. + Informações

LINK: tinyurl.com King Curtis was the last of the great R&B tenor sax giants. He came to prominence in the mid-'50s as a session musician in New York, recording, at one time or another, for most East Coast R&B labels. A long association with Atlantic/Atco began in 1958, especially on recordings by the Coasters. He recorded singles for many small labels in the '50s -- his own Atco sessions (1958-1959), then Prestige/New Jazz and Prestige/TruSound for jazz and R&B albums (1960-1961). Curtis also had a number one R&B single with "Soul Twist" on Enjoy Records (1962). He was signed by Capitol (1963-1964), where he cut mostly singles, including "Soul Serenade." Returning to Atlantic in 1965, he remained there for the rest of his life. He had solid R&B single success with "Memphis Soul Stew" and "Ode to Billie Joe" (1967). Beginning in 1967, Curtis started to take a more active studio role at Atlantic, leading and contracting sessions for other artists, producing with Jerry Wexler, and later on his own. He also became the leader of Aretha Franklin's backing unit, the Kingpins. He compiled several albums of singles during this period. All aspects of his career were in full swing at the time he was murdered in 1971. ~ Bob Porter, All Music Guide. + Informações

When somebody loves you It's no good unless he loves you all the way Happy to be near you When you need someone to cheer you all the way Taller than the tallest tree is That's how it's got to feel Deeper than the deep blue sea is That's how deep it goes if it's real When somebody needs you It's no good unless he needs you all the way Through the good or lean years And for all the in-between years come what may Who knows where the road will lead us Only a fool would say But if you'll let me love you It's for sure I'm gonna love you all the way all the way So, if you'll let me love you It's for sure I'm gonna love you all the way all the way (S. Cahn, J. Van Heusen). + Informações

As I said in the note to 'Tin Tin Deo', those who heard Jimmy Forrest in person said the most dreaded position on stage is being another tenor player along side of him. In this cut, standing with jazz stalwarts, not amateurs by any means, guys who are more critically acclaimed, guys who got more studio time, guys you've heard of--from Jimmy's first flourish, you can sense they just want to go home. He continues his solo showing his harmonic complexity, incredible sense of rhythm and groove, the ability to move effortlessly from the beautiful to the honking blues, and the ability to build his solo. King Curtis follows, gets in and gets out as quickly as possible, and then fellow St. Louisan Oliver Nelson takes over, using the Nelson method. Oliver wrote about improvisation, saying that you begin with a two or three note theme, and gradually build with more notes and volume. For years there were alto players in St. Louis who were disciples of Nelson, all the while never having heard Jimmy Forrest, who lived just around the corner. Upon hearing Forrest for the first time, they always asked why they hadn't heard of him before, shaking their heads in awe.. + Informações

A rare vocal performance from King Curtis! As the only African American member of the 'inner circle' of producers and arrangers at Atlantic Records, King Curtis had earned respect by consistently adding his own brand of genius to countless sessions over the years. As the 1960's drew to a close, his own albums took their place alongside Atlantic's new roster of artists like Eric Clapton, Delaney & Bonnie and The Allman Brothers Band, all of whom greatly revered him.. + Informações
