Let's get funky, smooth, and our heads in the game. Curtis Mayfield is coming in hot!
Cody and Hilary discuss the scope of Curtis Mayfield's work, and how much his thumbprint is all over the Civil Rights movement.
Mayfield's growing voice and subject matter was personal enough for him to step away from the Impressions, setting the stage for a solo career that would see him launched into even greater superstardom.
"Curtis" is one hell of a stepping stone. It simultaneously captures past and present, while looking hopefully toward the future.
