FABULOSO
NO EXISTE EL SOUL,,,,NI UN SAXO COMO EL DE KING KURTIS,,,COMO UN HENDRIX CUALQUIERA,,,,,,SOLO DESPRENDE UNA ENERGIA,,,,,QUE NO SE VOLVERA A SENTIR NUNCA,,,SOLO A TRAVES DE GTANDES DISCOS EN VIVO COMO ESTE

What live music used to sound like
The late 60s and early 70s gave us many music acts "Live at the Fillmore," a sign that the act had really arrived. By today's standards, the recordings were raw and, at their best, authentic to the sound and feel of the time.

King Curtis "Live at the Fillmore" is a satisfying mix of instrumental soul, R&B that combines the smooth melody of cuts like "A Lighter Shade of Pale" with some funky R&B (Memphis Soul Stew and others). While not every cut works (Led Zeppelin's A whole Loota Love), the CD shows a consistet level of musicianship and is a great sample of the musical experiments and fusion of the era.

Magic......Pure aural pleasure!
From the moment I put on this recording, I was captivated. Six minutes into 'Memphis Soul Stew' listners are treated to an explosion of sound that wraps up in it the genres of soul, rock, jazz, and most likely some unearthly sound millions of light years away. From beginning to end, King Curtis and the incredible musicians brought together on this recording groove and interact in a manner that few bands achieve. If you own three live recordings in your life, this should be .333333.
