You can't go wrong with any of his records between 70-76. Not a single bad song on those albums. Well some bad album covers, but that's an entirely different deal. I suggest you'd look up for those newer "double-feature" releases that have two Curtis albums packed in one (for a little more than a price of a middle-price CD). They usually have a classic album and "a lesser known" one for a bonus. I think they were (re-)released around 1999-2000. [Edited 5/30/05 3:45am] | |

Has anyone ever heard of this collection? I don't plan on getting it, but it looks pretty attractive.
 Check me out and add me on:

The man was an amazing talent : singer, songwriter, AND an extraordinary guitarist. Hearing somebody like him makes me even more aware of the lack of great talent that we have today #SOCIETYDEFINESU | |
