King Curtis And The Kingpins - rare TV appearance (1971)
Рет қаралды 10,802
Күн бұрынExceptional footage of saxophonist King Curtis and the Kingpins, a live TV appearance only weeks before he was tragically killed outside his apartment in Manhatten. King Curtis was very much a star in his own right, his soulful sax graced the recordings of Aretha Franklin (Respect), Buddy Holly, Jimi Hendrix and many others. The world lost a great talent in 1971, but over 50 years later this unearthed footage serves as a reminder of the soulful magic King Curtis blew into his glorious saxophone.

That's a big claim. There are quite a few amazing sax players. Curtis is my favourite. Thanks to Edward Weston from Trinidad and London for introducing me to the King in 1972. Hope you are out there reading this 🏏

There is no mistaking the King Curtis tone on sax. He provided so much aural charisma to many hits, including Aretha's version of "Respect". Nice to see and hear Cornell Dupree on guitar in this clip.

This is "Hello Sunshine", a song King Curtis co-penned and recorded with Ronnie Miller. Aretha Franklin and Wilson Pickett covered it as well. Another gem from the great King Curtis. Unbelievably beautiful - as if time stands still during this song. Thank you so much for uploading it. With Cornell Dupree on guitar, Jimmy Smith on organ. Anyone knows the names of the 2nd guitar, bass and drums?

Am I wrong but are there not snippets of People Get Ready? Intertwined? Whatever people just get on board … 🎶🎶

What is the tune? Sounds like "People Get Ready", though.
