Dr. West made me look up The Student by Anton Chekhov and brought me here after listening to it. The combination of a short story and song. To pair both of them together and they pair well goes to show you how deep Dr. West mind goes. And this is barely scratching the surface....
I have been on a kick with “The Impressions” for the last two months or so. This version is so crazy. I’m glad Curtis took and made it his own while still faithful to how he sang it in that group. Incredible
BLUE LIGHTS IN THE BASEMENT SLOW DANCING OFF THIS SONG IN CHICAGO, JUST DIVINE HAD THE ALBUM, SAW HIM AND IMPRESSIONS AT THE REGAL THEATRE CHICAGO GREAT TALENT, THE POET CURTIS.
RIP Mr. Mayfield. I was saddened to learn you were disabled from neck down in a freak stage accident and you had to all but give up music in 1990. This song has even more meaning now.
This sounds like a raw guitar/ lead vocal rehearsal maybe at home or in the studio w/out the musicians. However , sounds like Curtis to me. If it is, this is rare to have this recording. The studio version is awesome and timeless!!
You know I never heard this song before . It sounds like he's saying in context , that only in his mind she was good for him even though he loved her; "the fire would not ignite" but she didn't love him back. . Another Deep message from Curtis Mayfield..legend.
I don't mean to sound stupid who is dr. West never heard of him Danny way I'm glad he brought you here so you can listen to this wonderful song I loved and I lost anyway everyone stay safe and God bless

That makes me #5. I'm so happy to see like-minded individuals in the pursuits of the same things that I am.
I didn't grasp the significance of the student I get the idea but did I miss something?

Where is this great version from?? This isn't the 1968 Impressions version and it isn't on 1971's Curtis Live. Never heard before.
IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY, IT'S FROM A REMASTERED DOUBLE ALBUM CALLED ( BACK TO THE WORLD / LOVE ) FROM 1998. I HOPE THAT HELPS YOU OUT
Many thanks! :)
