You just can't beat the 1960's Impressions sound and Curtis Mayfield's songs from any era.

This version isn't 'too different' from that original sound ........ so everything is good. 

I like this, obviously by the semi original group, but if you like interpretations of Curtis mayfields work try 'the carter baron' by Oddisee, fabulous track....

I'll be picking this up as soon as the shops open Monday...

A very worthwhile release from the Fabulous Impressions.

 

Worth mentioning that the group will be performing at the Prestatyn Soul Weekender in March next year (2014) and will be performing this number!

Also, I wouldn't exactly call the group "semi-original", at least wiith a negative connotation. This is the lineup since about 1970, pretty much since curtis left to go solo (ignoring a small period of less than a year where donny hathaway sang lead). it's not like curtis died and reggie replaced him. plus reggie is an awesome dude and a great singer.

just clarifying, the group definitely isn't the original group with curtis, i just wanted to make sure people weren't discouraged thinking it was a "fake" group or something. they have a long history. thanks a lot.

Donny Hathaway? or Leroy Hutson?  :g:

Bob, as  mentioned above, it was Leroy Hutson that replaced Curtis wasn't it? Then Leroy left and Ralph Johnson and Reggie Torian joined for the First Impressions LP around '73 onwards?

 

Did Reggie Torian record before he joined the Impressions?

I already admitted my stupid mistake saying Donnie instead of Leroy.

 

However, Ralph did not join until after Reggie joined. Listen to my interview with Reggie, it's super interesting. Reggie also previously recorded as a member of the Enchanters on Golden Ear.

What was the line up for the Cotillion tracks ?

Sam, Fred, Reggie + Nate Evans (the "This Time With Feeling" guy).

Come on our kid, if you don't know the full history of the greatest soul group EVER , you're no kind of real soul fan  :yes:

i only have 45's no LP  so i asked the question                             BUT I'M NOT BITING YOU B******D  :wicked:

Bob,

       so were Ralph's vocals actually featured on any / many of the tracks featured on the Cotillion LP ?

He didn't get a name check on the album sleeve, it was Nate who was listed as a member of the group and figured in the group photo that adorned the album's front cover.

I think I'd have been very pissed off if I had sung on some of the tracks but not received my due credit.

I actually think Ralph sang on most of the songs.
