Live 70s soul, funk, r &b albums.....

Check out Curis/Live by Curtis Mayfield. The original LP on Curtom, and the recent Rhino remaster on CD, are both worth owning. A real highlight is the remarkably credible cover of "We've Only Just Begun."

James Brown Love Power Peace - Live in '71
EWF - Gratitude & Alive in '75
Commodores - Live!
TOP - Live and in Living Color
P-Funk Earth Tour
Rufus & Chaka Khan Live

That's a taste of real funk. The bomb.

THanks everyone...just to clarify...looking for cd releases..

The live TOP SHeffield recording,"Direct", received a one-star rating from allmusicguide...not the end all...but not good either...this was based soley on the performance...

I find allmusicguide helpful in cataloging artists and their work. However, their ratings and opinions of what is "best" or "representative" of an artist's work invariably differs from mine. I never let their rankings deter me.
