Curtis Mayfield: Freddie’s Dead (Live)
Here’s some old school funky goodness from a live, early ’70s performance of Curtis Mayfield and his band performing “Freddie’s Dead.”
Joseph “Lucky” Scott puts on a master class of some textbook groove on this one.
I just can say : THANKS a lot. Good job . You permitted me to discover so much. Thanks.
Curtis was very fortunate to have such a talented troupe of supporting musicians, variously including not just Lucky Scott on bass, but also Master Henry Gibson on percussion, Tyrone McCullen and Quinton Joseph on drums and Craig McMullen, Phil Upchurch and Gary Thompson on second guitars.
