5.0 out of 5 stars Curtis Would Be Proud! September 18, 2012
Format:Audio CD
Wow! This is incredible... An album of jazz instrumental versions of Mayfield's best. This may be the perhaps the coolest reinvention of an artist's work ever conceived. I mean one need be bold to tackle Curtis Mayfield's songbook and think you could add to what Curtis already created. Goal achieved! Surpassed!!

It helps of course to have this cast of amazing A-list musicians: Ernie Watts, Wallace Roney, Phil Upchurch (who co-produced), Bob Hurst, Russ Ferrante, Terri Lyne Carrington and the late great Master Henry Gibson. They and producer Brian Brinkerhoff have truly created a deep soulful journey.

Don't miss it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Most favorable impressions September 29, 2012
Format:MP3 Music|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a great jazz take on the Curtis Mayfield catalog highlights. The interpretations of Mayfield's and The Impressions' hits do double duty:

They are interesting performances that stand on their own musical merit; no knowledge of the originals is required.

And they evoke the essence of the original tune. I wanted to listen to the originals immediately after listening to compare and look for the musical features that were drawn upon in the jazz versions.

Excellent performances and well recorded. Highly recommended.
