Curtis
LP (Item 25985) Curtom, 1970 — Condition: New Copy
Nicely priced US reissue of this classic! This was Curtis Mayfield's first solo album after leaving the Impressions, and it's a firey album of political soul that shows just how much he was holding back when he was with the group. The tracks are longer, angrier, more experimental, and a lot more funky. Standout tracks include "If There's a Hell Below, We're All Gonna Go", "Miss Black America", and "We the People Who Are Darker Than Blue" – but the whole album's a classic! Reissued with the original gatefold cover! © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
