Memories…1977..hadjust arrived in Atlanta , Ga. from Jamaica to attend University….ROOTS hit the TV screen n was a must see…loved Curtis Mayfield thru out my high school years in Ja, so his soundtrack for the series was a must have…
1971 I was in my senior year had my driver I had bought CURTIS on album and I love the new style, the arrangement, and the music . So when Roots came out I had to have . My Dear Mother trusted me to drive her to visit her younger sister in Hot Springs , Arkansas and Curtis took us all the way down there and back. Curtis Mayfield was a huge taste for me at that point . LB Boomer Sooner October 13, 2023 Friday evening 7:41pm .
I was turn on to Brother Curtis while serving my wonderful and beautiful country in and during the Vietnam War and I must admit this Brother was a Great Genius, being the Poet that he was I've taken a few of his lyrics seriously as well as enjoying his music. So right on my Brother!!!R.I.P.FOREVER
Curtis' music is STILL powerful, awesome and great. You should also listen to Gil Scott Heron, another brilliant brother whose songs made so much sense and was just as deep. May they both REST IN POWER!
That's my song...them only cool days.. whole neighborhood was there. Summertime up in West oak lane philly..we all up in mt airy..hanging out...Roots..philly
What a masterpiece. Curtis was very literally among the best. If he had stuck to making conventionally-themed music, he'd be hailed as a legend, from here to Hollywood. But he stuck to his guns and made these superb statements, as unpalatable as they were for white people to listen to and acknowledge. A true legend of music, there was nothing like him nor will there ever be anything like him again
@@torresalex *YOU* are the racist. Moron. *YOU* said that Curtis' music is/was "unpalatable for white people". Not me. I'm glad someone censored your comment because it is the dumbest thing I've read this morning. Do not pass go. Do not collect $200.
@@1madmaxx80 Getting a little too defensive now? Calling ME a racist? You don't even know how to read. Go read what I wrote and try to understand it. Many people at the time found Curtis' exposé about how African Americas were living were very hard to swallow for many white people. If you can't understand that, get educated instead of hiding behind an alphanumerical handle to go on tirades on YT and . YOu're a snowflake AND a coward.

A suggestion: Requiem for a Harlequin by David Allen Coe. Not just the album (29 min approx) but the whole story behind it. I would love to find out his inspiration. It was made around 1970, long before anyone had ever heard of "outlaw country". Its totally different from anything else I've ever heard and one of my favorite works.
Curtis boots todos. Lo de deseen podra ir de un lado. A otro. Siempre. Tespetsndi los lineamietis. En comu acurdo ay gente k se canda con un misma. Coda creand o estres. Y cianbiando t renueva. Ok
