Joseph 'Lucky' Scott.. Curtis had a phenomenal band: drummer Tyrone McCullen, guitarist Craig McMullen, bassist Joseph Lucky Scott. And on this performance the Conga player was Master Henry Gibson..
My friend has this DVD the old gray whistle test it's a TV show in England the DVD has a bunch of bands who perform on the show it's pretty cool i never really listened to curtis maxfield until i saw this performance
My parents use to play his records all day when I was little.. I still remember the lyrics and made sure my kids know who Curtis Mayfield was (my English writing sucks..I know)
@@nl2505 I watch Old Grey Whistle test performances all the time.. For some indefinable reason they always brought out the best in artists. Much as Jools Holland does on his show now.. Check out Gil Scott Herons OGWT performance..
When live performances sound better than the recordings you know its something special. These musicians are on another level
Exact !
That bass player is killing it!
