Biography
Singer/songwriter Jimmy Curtiss is one of the more interesting footnotes in the history of rock & roll -- the rare would-be teen idol who actually wrote his own material (and did so admirably), he later expanded his reach into psychedelia and harmony-laden folk-rock, but while the subject of a small cult following, none of his records ever made a commercial dent. Born and raised in Queens, New York, Curtiss first surfaced in 1959 as a member of the doo wop combo the Enjays.
