    found the "jump back" 45 a couple years ago at the melrose swap... it has been getting increasingly cue burned from repeated plays ever since...

    The flip side, which is Curtis' version of "When Something Is Wrong With My Baby," is ace as well. It's pretty much a note-for-note cover of the original - what Sam & Dave sang, Curtis plays - but it's STILL a killer in spite of itself.

    Another one to look out for: his hyperspeed version of Horace Silver's "Sister Sadie" (on Capitol).

    is he related to the other Ousley guy? Harold, maybe?



    It does not say anything in the (thorough) background liner notes on Harold Ousleys The Kid album (Cobblestone72) about any relation....quess they would have mentioned it if there was one...
