Curtis (deluxe edition)

Temporarily Out Of Stock

Add Item to Want List
CD (Item 34326) Curtom/Rhino (Germany), 1970 -- Condition: New Copy

Deluxe reissue with 9 bonus tracks including 6 previously unreleased demo tracks! 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! Extra tracks include demo versions of "Power to the People", "Underground", "Readings in Astrology", "Suffer", and the single version of "(Don't Worry) If There Is a Hell Below We're All Going To Go".  © 1996-2010, Dusty Groove America, Inc.
