Real singers, singing real songs!!
One of the things that made Curtis so great, he didn't need to sing lead on every song. Let the others shine at times...Wow!!
Leroy Hutson in the middle went on to have a slightly successful solo career of his own also writing and producing all the Natural Fours' sings he was is truly a one of the great ones that never got his just due
For sure have all Natural Four albums also a lot of Leroy Hutson
Leroy Huston !!!!
My mother had an album by the Natural Four. I played it to death. I loved that album the lyrics and the harmonies were incredible. But I didn’t know they put out any more albums I’m going to have to do some research.
Jerry Butler sang the original lead vocals on this one before he left the Impressions. He possessed a great baritone voice. Another gem written by Curtis.
Curtis Mayfield writing was incredible!!!
I can tell many of the folk commenting don't know ish about the Impressions..they sound fantastic with & post Curtis. Curtis (of course) wrote this..& also produced it. This didn't get the push it should have gotten
Fred sounds great on lead & should have done more! They were also great with Reggie & Ralph..
That was a great album they put out that year w/out Curtis.
THIS STARTED MY NEW YEAR OFF PERFECTLY, THANKS FOR POSTING IT.
Thank you, I'm a gigantic Impressions fan and have been (ALL) my life. and remain so to this very day. But, hat's off to you because you honestly (really) did set the year off for me and I am extremely (GRATEFUL), and that is for (REAL).
Glad you enjoyed it. It's rare to see them in a low key, stripped down performance like this with their own road band.
Damn...they were good after Curtis Mayfield left
😳wow
Jerry butler & Curtis mayfield were the original impression ??
Yes, with Sam Gooden, Richard and Arthur Brooks. Jerry Butler left after their first hit, For Your Precious Love.
Oooooh ooooooh !!!
I need ya
I need yaaaa
I have to say that my favorite lead after Curtis left was Ralph Johnson
Correct, Ralph Johnson could Sing Sing his Ass Off!!!!!!
@@kennethtaylor9999 I have most of his Impressi
I have most of his Impressions albums plus his group Mystique but never heard anything else from him after that do u know what happened to him?
These dudes were great. they were the soundtrack for blk living and movement. Them not dancing may be the reason they didnt blow up like the chilites, ojays and temps.
That is Leroy Hudson in the middle, These are not "The Impressions" of Curtis Mayfield
These are the impressions without Curtis the guy talking at the start is not an original. the other two are.
I like this performance but I like Leroy Hutson has a solo singer and Reggie Torian as Curtis' replacement better. IMO
Yes, Leroy did some good singing from his heart as solo. 💿🎙
Sing 🎤 Bro
Nowhere near as good without the great CURTIS MAYFIELD
They had some Great Moments after Curtis. It's just the hits didn't last long.
Scotty Pippen trying to fill Michael Jordon's shoes. Good but not enough.😒
