Where to start ? 

   I had the great pleasure to see Curtis ,  twice !   the first time i had tears rolling down my face, from the sheer magic that stood in front of me ,    he played that Telecaster with absolute ease,  he ooozed quality and class,   he had us hypnotised . 

     too many songs to list or mention,  but for me,   his ultimate 'protest' song   "People get ready" ,  makes me wilt.     just a fabulous song writer, performer,  guitarist, drummer,  etc etc.     he was a true legend and a true superstar .

  I was at Nottingham Palais,   a bank holiday sunday night,  (Kev Roberts do) when i heard the news he had sadly died,   i went to a phone box and phoned my cousin,   thats how important to us, Curtis Mayfield was
