CD ReviewsCovers 3 Albums from the early 70's T. C Lane | Marina, CA USA | 10/02/2002 (4 out of 5 stars) "This covers 3 RCA albums by Castor from 72/73. If your're like me, the Rhino Best of loses steam after "Bertha Butt Boogie" and the Disco era moves in. Castor's disco records weren't as good as his funk ones. So, this CD doesn't have "Bertha" or his first hit "Hey Leroy You're Mama's Callin' You", but it's a tight, funky collection of his RCA years. These were arguably his best years. Not all of this is funky. There's a smooth instrumental remake of "First Time Ever I Saw You're Face". And there's a couple of straight up Soul songs. As a companion to the Rhino collection this is a must if you like that CD. Only 3 songs are duplicated from the Rhino CD. There's liner notes and great sound. So, this is indeed a great collection for Castor fans to own."
