YOU NEED TO BE READY FOR THIS MUSICAL ACT. A TROUBADOUR OF BLUES AND SOUL, CURTIS SALGADO (BORN 1954, EVERETT, WA) RAISES HIS STATUS AS A MUSICAL POET TO THE HIGHEST LEVEL IN HIS FIRST LIVE-RECORDED ALBUM. PRECISION PLACES THIS WORK IN THE MOST SEDUCTIVE AND IRRESISTIBLE ORBIT OF ANYTHING THE ARTIST HAS RELEASED TO DATE. THE SONG SELECTION DRAWS THE LISTENER INTO THE MOST SINCERE INTIMACY OFFERED BY A MUSICIAN AT THE PEAK OF HIS CREATIVITY, WHILE THE WAY THEY ARE PRESENTED TO THE AUDIENCE NURTURES THE SENSITIVITY AND GENEROSITY THAT SALGADO CLEARLY DEMANDS OF HIMSELF. THE BAND BEHIND HIM SOUNDS IMPOSING—LIKE NEVER BEFORE. HORNS, KEYBOARDS, AND SIMPLY UNPARALLELED BACKING VOCALS SETTLE OVER A RHYTHM SECTION THAT IS IMPECCABLY TIGHT AND EXPRESSIVELY BRILLIANT. AND OF COURSE, CURTIS SALGADO AT THE VERY TOP. A DEEPLY MOVING VOICE, FIERCELY REVEALING WHAT SOUL REPRESENTS TODAY. FOR THIS LISTENER, “LEGACY REWIND – LIVE IN ’25” SHOWCASES AN ARTIST IN SUPERLATIVE FORM—A CURTIS SALGADO SURPASSING ANY OF HIS PREVIOUS WORK, PERFORMING LIVE BEFORE AN AUDIENCE WITH HIS FINEST SONGS. IT WILL BE HARD TO FIND ANOTHER RHAPSODIST LIKE HIM IN CONTEMPORARY SOUL-BLUES.
