Description

CURTIS MAYFIELD Roots (2021 UK/EU limited edition 7-track LP, released as part of the 'Rhino Black' series – Curtis Mayfield's visionary 1971 second studio album is a landmark creation every bit as compelling and far-reaching in its musical and extra-musical goals as Marvin Gaye's contemporary What's Goin' On. Opening with the hit Get Down, the album soars on some of the sweetest and most eloquent, yet driving, soul sounds heard up to that time. Picture sleeve with hype sticker, facto Tracklisting & Info:This recording is one of Mayfield's strongest – a bold, explosive mix of serious funk and righteous melodies. When he says, 'Get down to the funky, funky groove' – it's not an invitation to party, it's a command. 'Keep On Keeping On' is one of Mayfield's sweetest melodies – a track so strong and uplifting that you'll be high-fiving everyone you see for weeks afterward.TRACKLISTA1. Get Down 5:45A2.
