I's never heard this before, presumably one of Leroy's first tracks with the guys

This is a real find! So little footage exists of Leroy Hutson in the group. Thank you Soulwally.

That's actually Curtis singing on the recording! Leroy was just lip syncing. Still a nice update!

Now I really should have spotted that.

A little info on this song; The Impressions' "Can't You See" was the B-Side of "Check Out Your Mind" from 1970 and one of the last songs that Curtis Mayfield did with them. And it's a remake; the original version was done in 1962 [[in a kind of "doo-wop" style) and was the B-Side of "Grow Closer Together".

We absolutley love Leroy in the UK..... I saw him in his most recent London concert....... fantastic and such a huge smash with his audience. Don't understand why he is not back more often.

Mike, we love him here too. He is a big favorite of my brother and cousin. Thank for the clip.
