Great CD
If you enjoy curtis mayfield and don't own all the albums then this two disc CD is a great purchase.


The Songs Curtis should be remembered for.

There are some glaring omissions like "Gypsy Woman" and
"We're A Winner" which was the motto of his own Curtom label. The ones that made him unique as a songwriter and musician.
But if you only can only afford 1 Curtis Mayfield recording this is the most complete. His years with the Impressions,Donny Hathaway and solo. The patriotism of "This is My Country" juxtaposed against "If There's A Hell Below" which showed curtis
knew Ghetto rap before the term existed. Not his best known but
his most signicant music.


A Great OVer view
his Songs Reflect Society at large. This is a Must on a Musical Genius that continued to grow with each passing Decade. they give Hope,Joy,Love&overcoming problems. Choice of Colours alone speaks Volumes from Yesterday to Today. a Must.
