What a wonderful and talented man whose music gave us so much soulful joyous love as well as pushing for the rights of Black people to live free from the evils of white racism.
They don't make songs like people get ready no more this is a real Old School classic today's music is just trash love Old School classic R&B Old School it's the best music ever
Curtis Mayfield an incredible singer, songwriter, performer, etc … I've heard this song covered by numerous artists, and yes, they did a terrific job, but no one does it like Curtis Mayfield.
thank you,for posting this. I saw alot of change in the 60's and 70's. my mother owned a recored store across the street from the Black Panthers in Seattle Wa. She taught me all about equality and kindness to all of gods children. She was a single black woman who raised two mixed raced kids myself and my brother and taught us compassion and tollerance. This is the first song I remember knowing by heart. It brings a smile to my face!
RIP C M . . . You are truelly missed in this world ! ! ! The Black Panthers burned down my school when I was 12 yrs old. The Lincoln Memorial JR High School in the birth place of the KKK in the city of Forrest City, Arkansas. Done in protest for the right to be free and equal to all mankind and for the right to be non-segregated or not. Then came the Hells Angels, hired by the USA Government to come in and Try to put anyone down low who was not White /Right. The angels got their axes shipped and deservingly so. They were once considered elite military unit sworn to uphold the USA Constitution, instead they became some of the lowest of the low. I watched that town riot out and an Indian dude and a black dude was hung to death from a pole for being in mixed race relationships. It got much worse before it got better ! ! ! The National Guard ended those days of human self destruction and carnage, but I believe it was GOD who ended those days and happenings ! ! ! You know that General Nathan Bedford Forrest created the KKK and he also came to renounce it and all it's EViL ! ! ! Is the world and people's in it really any better these days as in any other times before them ? ? ? I am Native American, European and Afrikan, some 23 & me information there, but I am so much more, a work always in progress just as is those in the future to come . . . They tried to make me be a who what where when why and how come at their say so and command, but I held and still hold to my rights as set fourth in the USA Constitution and the Bill Of Rights as upheld by the USA Supreme Court which what is bound on Earth is bound in Heaven . . . FREEDOM, Noone nor Nothing will ever be able to take my soul, for it belongs only to GOD, my Pledge Of Allegiance, AMEN ! ! ! 😎🎸🌹DDH 12-2-2019.
Curtis Mayfield you were in my day the 60' a voice and soulful sound I will never forget have turned my kids on to him. O I love him his sweet sounds and he sings to the then, here and now! I am screaming.... Awwwwwwww play boy play sing man sing!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i heard the song move on up in the early 70s at just 14 and thought jeeeez that is awesome who sings that and from that day until this curtis mayfield his voice his music his soul changed my whole perception of music and the message it can send, if you listen closely there is more soul in the chorus of angels now he is with them.
Racial tension has no place in music. The world was blessed with this talented gift from God. He is so missed. So much soul from this man he was an angel on this earth.
I love this man's voice.....this song is glorious. Goosebumps time!! This takes me way back in time....I wish our current leaders would wake up and know, there's, no hiding place.....Tee in Southwest Usa
Curtis was a gift from God A message in every song & that unmistakable voice...silky smooth...his songs remain fresh So sad when he got paralyzed, never will be forgotten
The message here is Jesus Christ, the Saviour of the world. He will be coming back to pick up all who surrender their hearts to Him. Get on board of that train, because that’s what Curtis is singing about. He’s calling you, yes you. Jesus loves you ❤
True innovator, a beautiful human being and the king of Soul!, i love playing along to Mr Mayfield on my LP matadors taken too soon but he be jamming up there with the best
Curtis' voice was butter, one of the few that had their fingers on the pulse of those of us from the urban environment, never sold out to sell more records, stayed true to his art and sang from his soul
how he hits those high notes effortlessly, even in 1990 when almost 60 years old. Amazing. when he says "move on up" in those extra high notes, chills down my back 🔥🎸 also love seeing white musicians working with him too, they definitely respect an OG like mayfield. appreciating diff cultures 🌟
That bass player just realized he played the funkiest grooves around and just can't get enough of it. Just rocking it out to and with Curtis Mayfield, full on mullet in a white suit wearing oversized sunglasses. Few men even aspire to that level of greatness.
Thanks, Randy Keith Brown, you preserved in video this great pice of art, and the art is UNlimited and UNiversal, that's why I write and greet you from Quito, Ecuador, South America, I admire the good music, Curtis Mayfield is a legend of the music and you played in his band!, congratulations! I hope you have enjoyed it! I am sure you did it!!
Love Curtis, he was a true talented singer who incorporated his words spiritual. One of the greatest singers of all time. May he rest in eternal glory and peace. 💖🙏✌
Giving Thanks , for “ The Life well Lived .., a friend, forever remembered ; Sweet Spirit.., continue the journey ;… Bardie & Family…, “ TRUTH IN LOVE “
This historical video is a wonderful share Randy. Great Performance from a master of soul music and great band. Love the bass solo's. Congratulations on getting on board. Sad and tragic for Curtis.
Look at the crowd Enjoying the moment and NOT ONE SINGLE CELL PHONE in site or held up. I miss those days. Sometimes I think Progress has progressed too much.
Thank you Randy. Curtis was my Guitar Hero BITD but all I could play were Dylan's Three Chords... then, Murali Coryell showed me how to play those Sweet Soul Guitar chords. What an Innovator in Music and Tragic Loss.
Curtis Mayfield excelled in his own right as a solo artist and within The Imperials. But he always a master when he produced other acts. He was the force behind The Five Stair-steps and let us acknowledge the “Claudine” album. Just Tasty 😊
"The Makings of You" Everytime I listen to Curtis sing it, I tear up with heartfelt emotions. I'm 70 now still tearing up. With Curtis's gift delivered unto us. We all experienced Greatness that enhanced our lives immensely. 🙏💙☮️
Thanks for sharing this Randy and letting it be known that you played bass with Curtis. You Definitely had it going on playing that bass. God bless you!
I Love You ,You are my first Cousin and it's have been a honesty to have met you but you can tell Uncle Sonny and Aunt Katie May y'all are very much love their baby Girl Marcie Grier

the man had the pulse of the times, his songs are timeless. i wept when he had that tragic accident. but, his songs remain.
What a wonderful and talented man whose music gave us so much soulful joyous love as well as pushing for the rights of Black people to live free from the evils of white racism.

Curtis was my favorite soul master.
My favorite songwriter I hugged him after a performance in the 1970s. He responded with a cool, "What's happening?" 😎
HOW DID HE COMPOSE SUCH BEAUTIFUL MUSIC? R.I.P GREAT ONE ✡
Smooth, soulful, percussive etc. the genius of Curtis Mayfield. And that guitar playing... wow.
Loved his STYLE & LYRICS & Meaningful CONTENT!

one of the BEST modern gospel songs ever
Boy do we need this man and his music now more than ever!!
What a privilege to be able to play bass with him. I will never understand why God allowed one of his angels to suffer so much.
you said it perfectly.
@@generfeld
Tony is going to have the best time and he
I'd say he was allowed out.
I play bass to
Curtis music always had a message even when he wrote for other artists or movie scores, i.e Super Fly and Claudine!
The message here is Jesus Christ, the Saviour of the world. He will be coming back to pick up all who surrender their hearts to Him. Get on board of that train, because that’s what Curtis is singing about. He’s calling you, yes you.
Jesus loves you ❤
@@1zandstra Gobble Goop, but whatever floats your boat, I too like fantastical story however this one is a bridge too far!

As I was watching this I thought man that bass player is solid. I wondered who it was?Great playing and what a trip backing the great Curtis Mayfield!
