Album Description
Curtis Salgado, the man credited by John Belushi as the inspiration for The Blues Brothers, is one of the finest soul/blues singers on the scene today, having been vocalist/harp player with Robert Cray, Room Full Of Blues and Santana. He's recorded a string of outstanding solo albums with both originals and tasty cover material ranging from blues to soul to rock. This new album, recorded by The Phantom Blues Band(known for backing Bonnie Raitt, Taj Mahal and a host of others) maybe his best yet as it delivers a powerful set of original songs plus sublime covers such as his beautifully-sung version of Al Green's "Let's Get Married."

 Not so good September 28, 2008
Bill (Washington - State)
This is the second Curtis Salgado disc I have bought because folks that have seen him just raved about how good he is. He must be one of those love um or hate um type artists. After repeated listens no bright spots appeared anywhere on this CD to catch my interest. My advice, listen first then buy if he hits a cord with you.
 Salgado is Back September 7, 2008
David Proctor (Boise, ID)
After the horrifying experience of needing a liver transplant to save his life, Curtis Salgado is back with one of the best recordings of his career. From his days in the Robert Cray Band, Salgado has been one of the country's great R&B singers. He's never made the impact on the national consciousness that Cray did, and he had his Blues Brothers act stolen by John Belushi, but he never stopped making dynamic recordings and doing great shows. If you get a chance to see him live, don't miss it. And this CD is an excellent example of what does and continues to do. Listen to the samples. They rock. Curtis rocks. This CD rocks.
Another Curtis Lover! August 20, 2008
K. Lawrence (Kelso, WA USA)
We just had the pleasure to see Curtis 3 days ago (my 9th time, my husbands 6th time) and we were delighted to see him looking so good and sounding so fabulous! We bought "Clean Getaway" directly from Curtis and he, as usual, autographed it for us, we've been listening to it solid since Saturday. An excellent production, and as Curtis told his audience the other night, there was no sound booth, just honest cuts, no headphones, and very few overdubs. That's why it sounds so honest! Curtis is a legend, and I'm loving that we've been here for so long before everyone else figures him out. I agree with another reviewer, "Who's lovin' you" could easily be a huge hit. "Let's get married" is absolutely awesome too. I told Curtis the other night, "You make the world just alittle bit cooler Curtis!" Thanks for weathering the storm Curtis, we aren't ready to lose you yet!
Curtis Cleans Up with Clean Getaway August 11, 2008
Faith Kostelnik (Greensboro, NC, USA)
WooHoo! After the health issues that Curtis Salgado has faced over the past several years I was worried that he wouldn't have the usual grit and grind in his voice and music. Oh me of little faith!!! Curtis does about 5 cover songs; two of the best are Who's Lovin' You and Let's Get Married Today. These songs showcase the amazing control that Salgado has over his vocals and leaves no doubt about his fine harp playing. This CD has a sound that is a bit more mature than some of his earlier ones...which goes to show that he just gets better with age!
Curtis Salgado's Clean Getaway His Shining Star! August 11, 2008
Linda S. Hyatt (Oregon)
I have all of his music and have been at many of his concerts - this is his best effort yet. A true musical masterpiece! Every song is a number one hit. Treat yourself - buy this one for you and anyone for whom you care!
