I bought this on Vinyl about a month ago..saw it for $16 I couldn't pass on it

I got my pops original copy he had back in the day, and I got some cleaner copies as well. They re-issued the vinyl too.
-
Mane i love this album, Curtis subject matter still relevant to this day
He may not have been the greatest vocalist but his songwriting/producing ability is only matched by few
-
I keep this on the phone, in the car or the computer at all times.
Album covers everything -
Curtis Mayfield is my favorite artist in all music.
The GOAT hands down -
Y'all should check out the demo of little child running wild...one take. It sounds like it's him, the bass player, the drummer & the congo man!
-
i know this not on Superfly but this is my all time favorite song from Curtis
We are the People Darker Than Blue

Love that song. One of my favorites.
"Pardon me, brother, while you stand in your glory
I know you won't mind if I tell the whole story" -
^such uplifting lyrics on that track, that song is all about unity, every shade of BLACK folk together as one people
His subject matter is what makes him stand out as one of the greats, along with his production skills

"This ain't no time for segregatin'
I'm talking 'bout brown and yellow too
High yellow girl, can't you tell
You're just the surface of our dark deep well
If your mind could really see
You'd know you're colored the same as me" -
