He was the King of the sax, even in fact!
Great artist!

[dennishahn]

I love the Big Texas sound. No one has come close to this artists sound and playing 🎷💞

[barrykingsrun]

Sam Cooke sent me here. Mentions this in having a party. Says “no other songs will do.”

[clarkewi]

Big hit "Sam Cooke" summer '62 in LA. I was 11 and bought the 45 at the local record store. Played the grooves off.

[charleneconnelly]

Awesome, I started listening to Boots Randolph, and jamming along with his recordings. The greats are the best

[clarkewi]

Such a tight track. I was 11 when this ruled the LA air waves on KFWB "channel 98" and 11 ten KRLA. I'm 70 - amazing I remember that. '62 was the last "care free" summer. Next fall Cuban Missle Crises and a year later JFK blown away.

I started playing electric garter in 62 because of this song...was the Bomb!

[huckbarry]

My mom and dad had the original.45 to this great soul instrumental!!

[soulmuchsoul]

I played this on Soul much soul radio!

[shiftyhe]

Booker T. sez in his new book him and The MGs would play it. High praise!

[scottbailey]

Yea, WVOL Nashville! This was out 2 years before I was born! I'm 56 now, this is my kind of Soul Music. I worked at WVOL in the 80s when we went Classic Soul Oldies, but I wonder why we didn't play this OR I did the overnight shift and was so sleepy I missed it? It was a tight format when I was there. Believe it or not at WVOL, The Mighty 147, I would play Foreigner's "I've Been Waiting For A Girl Like You", a White Song, not on our playlist, but my listeners wanted it! I knew what they knew what they were doing😁! (HA)

[hmackie]

I am white, hate to have to say it, and I LOVE KING CURTIS always have

[alvishope]

Elvis' jukebox sent me here. Approved.

[deejannemeiurffnicht]

Billy Cox said he and Hendrix listened to this as they developed... just sounds like bog standard 12 bar pub band stuff.. wow...
(was always led to believe this King Curtis guy was some kind of music god... oh well.... hey ho.... let's go!)

[johnholloway]

my older associates i the 60s worshipped this so did i

[BIG-BlueNation]

Could you imagine being in a small club one night & the King of the sax was playing?

[tonyfreeman]

Billy Cox brought me here.He's parked out back.

[Lisa-diwi]

It's so sad to here what happened to him HIs life was snuffed out by two drug dealers sitting right out in front of his apartment.

[johnbockelman]

That's Jimi Hendrix off to the right...Best to All.

This reminds me a lot of some of the great sides by Bill Doggett, the great organist-bandleader from Philly.
