Homeless right now. Writing this from a McDonald’s. Times are tough and bills are tough. I’m not giving up and this song keeps me moving. Love y’all. God is good.
Man I feel you music really helps in hard times. I hope the universe shines on you with shelter! Hearts my heart to hear your story ! If I had it like that I would get you a place ! Peace and love!
Stevie Wonder, Isaac Hayes, Curtis, James Brown, Willie Hutch, Barry White, Lonnie Liston Smith, Roy Ayers, Grover Washington Jr., Aretha Franklin, Sly Stone , Van McCoy, Patrice Rushen and George Clinton were music game changers in the sixties and seventies. Their music still gets you off your ass and makes your head bop back and forth. Great music never dies!
The Dramatic, Manhattans, Emotions, Harold Melvin and the Blue notes, Temprees, Dells, Four Top, Temptations, OJays, Stylistics, Escorts, Heatwave, Smokey and the Miracles, Earth wind and fire, Diana ross and the Supremes, and of course many, many more. Timeless music
Curtis Mayfield was my patient in Atlanta .... he was one of the kindest, humble and gentle man .... I was so nervous to meet him ... and be one of his physicians ...he is truly a Legend
SAME HERE. THE PEOPLE THAT I GREW UP WITH IN THE PROJECTS ARE AND WILL ALWAYS BE MY FAMILY. MUSIC TODAY JUST KEEPS ON LOOPING AROUND AND AROUND. IT DOESN'T HAVE ANY SOUL TO IT. ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
I've never heard anyone referencing to Curtis Mayfield as genius.. but this brother takes a back seat to no one when it comes to musical talent. you don't get more genius than this man..
This is one cool cat. As a white man that grew up in the bay area with the brothers and sisters listening to their music. I GET. IT! Most peckerwoods don't. Oh yeah ( I can dance too ) amazing artist from an amazing time. Miss you brother.
I wish i could give this a thousand likes i was 11 years old when this dropped and this was men where men and real women stood by their man through thick and thin.
When you hear this all you can think about how much pride and love we had for our own self as black men and women I do remember how much fun it was to be in love and happy.
R.I.P. Curtis... Timeless composition and execution. A truly impressive work of art (the entire album) which, to my ears, sounds even better nearly 50 yrs. after release.
What happened to those days when there was love and peace. When men and women truly loved and respected one another. This was the jam! Every time I hear it I am on top of the world!
Just listening to this tune is giving me the shivers. This is what you call music.. Hearing the string instruments playing, the percussionist doing their ting, mmmmm the bass, the horns, rhythm guitar and the soulful sounds of the late great Curtis Mayfield just does it for me.. He made some great stuff and he WILL be sadly missed by US all. May his music live on forever 🙏🏾✊🏾❤
Curtis Mayfield. The. Soul. Singer. Brilliant lyrics, timeless. This record played ALL OVER Chicago! People would actually go into a trance on the dance floor. Mr. Mayfield made us a Better Version of ourselves. We are FOREVER grateful.
This is phenomenal and classic. These young people today don't nothing bout real music. Music and words for your soul. Ole' school music will always be the BEST!!!
There had to be a conspiracy to change black music! Listen to this! Powerful music with LIVE Instruments! Pure talent!!! The message behind the music was powerful too!
You're rite, it was and is controlled by the white Jewish ppl. True facts the musical artiste of today have to be controlled conditioned and confined to what the money suppliers want, so that they will always managed/slaved them. Hence the beautiful one, (Prince) wore the Slave symbol Documentaries exist on this topic
you answered your own question black musiq to powerful too spiritual they wanted too break all that up so they kill off certain artist poison few, give few cancer
One of the Greatest movies and soundtracks of all time, I grew up at this time, in this neighborhood in NYC, and watching this takes me back. Rest In Peace To Curtis Mayfield and Ron O'Neal and Thank You Gentlemen for this Amazing Masterpiece ...
This movie was cold as ice, but the Superfly Soundtrack was like a movie in itself. I was one years old when it came out.now I’m 51 [2021] and I’ve ALWAYS had it [Superfly Soundtrack] in EVERY car I ever owned. Thank you Curtis Mayfield for writing for the ghetto and those who live there. [posted November 29, 2021]
Cuba Gooding Sr had one of the most unique vocals of that era along with David Ruffin. Many of these groups had major, top shelf lead singers...Intruders, Dramatics, Spinners, Blue Magic all had these incredible Lead singers. Oh and the instrumental arrangements where 2nd to none
Way overdue he should have got two three Oscars best sound the best ever orchestrated and then the vocals cuz now we see why Barry White was as good as he was thank you Curtis for your tribute to us your people in the world brother you are sweet disease and it's spread it you need to keep on spreading we love you Curtis and thank you for your contribution may your soul be happy and free and I love you for the disease in the band Can't Forget About You Guys thank you guys
You said it well Grown Folks because it's grown folk that loves this music! Off the chart! Under rated Curtis - one of the most prolific song writers, singers and musicians of OUR time!
can't be faded.......the musical arrangement is something out of another world.........i want you so bad can't even get mad at you!!!!! A POET...A LEGEND...A KING!!!!!!!!!!!!! could live with you in solitude and need no one else.......R.I.P. Mayfield the KING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi Aljenard, nothing for me to add, as you really, covered Curtis Mayfield's greatness, and pure superiority, as a natural gifted musician, composer, and singer. My all-time favorite.
@@tonyagratton4927 Hi Toyna, thanks for your reply, I, sene that, this Curtis Mayfield love ballad would fit your appreciation, of expression of love by Curtis, go to Curtis Mayfield - "The Making of you" and -My Deceiving Heart" press HERE ON YOU TUBE search bar. take care. Walter D. J.
Omg...I'm, really miss the good times we, had in 1972!!..The, dudes, car's, clubs.. Everything, from that era I, went to the show to see the movie 3 times. ~~~
Absolute classic. Mixing the spirit of soul music (brass, piano, orchestra sound) with the groove and easy listening of funk. perfect combo. this is the very definition of old school cool. As someone born in the 80s who was not around for this decade or album, its still easy to recognize this is the king of cool. we need to respect what came before us. looking at photos of 70s lincoln continentals to this song is a perfect mix
Curtis (The Story Teller) was one of our greatest. This is back when all the entertainers had their own style. Not like today where everybody tries to sound alike. Damn I miss those days.
In 1972 Curtis gave me the line "could live with you in solitude and need no one else" I met my wife in high school Lake Clifton 40 years later were happily married Curtis you were the man no one ever did it better
June 3 Grew up with Mr Mayfield in our house, tho I was young that mystical voice of yester years still brings my loving late sister Carolyn whom suddenly died in 1969 back home in my heart she did not go home before meeting all the greats as the late great man Mr Curtis Mayfield May he remain in Sweet Peace with my late beautiful sister and all those gone too soon,
Pure music,clarity, message,instruments.Amazing. Romantic song.Yes Real Men. Today leave most going hmmnm With reservations, I must say.RIP Brotha Mayfield.#Legendary
This my shit gets me through a long night working that night shift. So smooth. 70s music had so much meaning and heart and soul in it. Makes u wanna get in a glass house and go out and get some money.
MAXI COAT WITH LARGE WING COLLARS, TURTLE NECK SWEATER, SLACKS & A FRESH PAIR OF FLAGG BROTHERS.......NOW WHERES 125TH STREET? (r.i.p Curtis & Ron O'Neal)
This brother was the man. Watch this movie Super Fly a few weeks ago and it always take me back to the smooth music of the 70's. Chilling outside in the summer time and hearing my brother play this on his record player. Yeah I said record player. And we b outside dancing to the tunes of some Smooth Mr. Curtis Mayfield. U were the man and still is the man. Thanks a million times for ur music Mr. Mayfield.
+Shah-Allah Shabazz The thing about it, you gotta be l o o k i n g for the good music today, cause it definitely ain't on the radio. I mean, I'ma assume it was an everyday thing to hear hear Curtis croon like this on W3SOUL or WBLS or KJLH back in your day. But today, music is not just a business...it's an i n d u s t r y. Most of today's music ain't art...it's product. So, while I do agree that music will never reinvent what artists like Curtis and Donny and Marvin and Stevie and James brought to the game, there are still a w e s o m e artists out there who will continue to tread waters these legendary old heads never touched. I'm talking about Jesse Boykins III, Georgia Ann Muldrow, Charles Bradley, Kamasi Washington, The Internet, etc. How d i d I find out about these artists? I dig, homie.
+Theodore Huxtable also check out LEON BRIDGES. there are some others but they are not mainstream. and you have to search for them because they're few and far between. but they are out there and could use the support to be around for a while.
Love this song. Love Curtis Mayfield. He had a gazillion hits with The Impressions, and a gazillion more on his own. Phenomenal singer and musician. None can compare. Rest in peace. Heaven will be sounding pretty good up there.
I love Curtis. It's always a miracle to me that his delicate, beautiful, spidery voice soars with such presence over so many instruments. Brilliant guy.
Homeless right now. Writing this from a McDonald’s. Times are tough and bills are tough. I’m not giving up and this song keeps me moving. Love y’all. God is good.
Hope you're doing ok today
May u be blessed beyond measures! Love you my friend from another mother
Man I feel you music really helps in hard times. I hope the universe shines on you with shelter! Hearts my heart to hear your story ! If I had it like that I would get you a place ! Peace and love!
Blessed is he and she the endure till the end
Send me your cash app name i will buy you lunch for tomorrow. May you be in Allah's blessings.. Keep safe.

Curtis Mayfield should have received an Oscar for the music score!!!! There has never been a better music score !!!!
Trouble man by marvin gaye is a close 2nd. Shaft also
Amen!!! Straight 🔥!
This album was too mind blowing for the Academy! They were scared of revolution.
That shaft score was. Great. Bro
I agree with everyone Curtis Mayfield Shaft

👍😃💕1972. Chicago Street music hell yes bring it back the best of the best. 60& 70& 80 OhYeah 😃👍💕💕 We all lived & loved each other 🙏. 🌍. 💕💕
Curtis Mayfield should have gotten a Grammy for the best score for the movie Superfly .Every Damn song was bad ass.
Yes, INDEED!
Yes. 💯
my opinion:he should have won the oscar for best score and best song too...
yes he should have won a grammy. but they eventually (1994) gave him a lifetime achievement award.
I thought Freddie's Dead won a Grammy. The whole album is Super Good. I was very surprised to hear "I'm Your Pusher Man," in the movie, "Hangover II."
This guy should go down in history as on of the most influential artists EVER !!
He was & they know, But he wasn't wit dat Bull & they Chose Quincy, he played their game ...
HE IS . . Top 5 easy
Every musicians father figure or they’re tone deaf.
Absolutely !!!!!
Absolutely!!! OG Funk Specialist
Curtis Mayfield was my patient in Atlanta .... he was one of the kindest, humble and gentle man .... I was so nervous to meet him ... and be one of his physicians ...he is truly a Legend
What a privilege to have him as a patient, I assume this was after his accident?
That is too cool! 🎉
I saw this Movie in London I was 14. I am 62 and still listening!
Im a white man but I grew up in the Intercity with this amazing music. ✌️ to all my brothers, love don't have a color...

Curtis Mayfield Was a Genius What a Hell of a soundtrack, Cold Blooded, he nailed this album, The Late Great Curtis Mayfield, Super Fly soundtrack.
When you hear this all you can think about how much pride and love we had for our own self as black men and women
I do remember how much fun it was to be in love and happy.
The best sound track of all time
Right …
I agree
R.I.P. Curtis... Timeless composition and execution. A truly impressive work of art (the entire album) which, to my ears, sounds even better nearly 50 yrs. after release.
Rest in peace
Never ever will the be artist like Curtis Marvin Gaye an it goes on and on Motown 💯
THE BEST
Ain’t NOTHING like the this REAL MUSIC❤️❤️❤️❤️
Curtis Mayfield was one of the best legacies of the 70s

This was when music was real & romantic. Monte Bermuda.
Totally agree with you, he was so inspired by so many different people. 👍💖🤝✌🙏🙏
because he mixed soul and funk, it was done perfectly. soul has the orchestra sound, funk has the easy listening groove to it, perfectly done
His music speaks to the soul that why shivers happen
One of the greatest Soul Legends of all time! RIP Curtis
"Could live with you in solitude and need no one else." That's grown love.
People I knew took a certain way strutted around with that album under their arm
Curtis Is one of the coldest to ever do it. His life story is that of legend
Facts, too 🥶 🧊, the man had true diamond hands. His arrangement and pen game is top tier
Music don't get any damn smoother than this.
Best soundtrack ever of the 70's the movie was Superfly .
The best album in history is Superfly.
If you're talking 70's, Claudine (Soundtrack and the movie) can give it a run for the money.

Cuba Gooding Sr had one of the most unique vocals of that era along with David Ruffin. Many of these groups had major, top shelf lead singers...Intruders, Dramatics, Spinners, Blue Magic all had these incredible Lead singers. Oh and the instrumental arrangements where 2nd to none
One of the greatest recordings ever! 👍

Totally, along with Mr. Willie Hutch...Real Music!
One of, if not the best smoothest melodies I have ever heard
The epitome of real solid music! Curtis Mayfield one of the most talented musicians that ever lived!!!
'Beautiful Brother of Mine'
I love listening to my 70s music this is real music at its best!!!
You said it well Grown Folks because it's grown folk that loves this music! Off the chart! Under rated Curtis - one of the most prolific song writers, singers and musicians of OUR time!
Who in their right mind gives this a thumbs down? It's beautiful. It's brilliant
Curtis Mayfield and The impressions. Great soul music. Sadly missed Curtis.
Ron O'Neal became Superfly. He was mesmerizing, the world-weariness and resignation in his portrayal, rings true to this day.
They picked the perfect man to score this movie...PERFECT
Yes sir I agree.
Multi-talent, play the guitar, write songs, piano, Sang out of this world.
Hi Barbara,hope you’re okay ?

I'm talking about Jesse Boykins III, Georgia Ann Muldrow, Charles Bradley, Kamasi Washington, The Internet, etc. How d i d I find out about these artists? I dig, homie.

also check out LEON BRIDGES. there are some others but they are not mainstream. and you have to search for them because they're few and far between. but they are out there and could use the support to be around for a while.

Love this song. Love Curtis Mayfield. He had a gazillion hits with The Impressions, and a gazillion more on his own. Phenomenal singer and musician. None can compare. Rest in peace. Heaven will be sounding pretty good up there.

Hi Carolyn,hope you’re okay ?
I love Curtis. It's always a miracle to me that his delicate, beautiful, spidery voice soars with such presence over so many instruments. Brilliant guy.
