Curtis Mayfield: The Songwriters
Playlist - 38 Songs
Curtis Mayfield’s poetically funky mix of soul and street-real lyrics revolutionized R&B, first with his ’60s group The Impressions on socially conscious cuts like “Choice of Colors,” and then solo with propulsive tunes like “Move On Up.” But it took a titan like Aretha Franklin to do justice to his modern-gospel anthem “People Get Ready,” and when Fishbone added a punk edge to “Freddie’s Dead,” it underlined Mayfield’s pan-generational appeal.
