* Track 2 (omitted) was released on the "Old Grey Whistle Test DVD Vol. 1", 2001.
This was a "dream release" for me when I found it at the same traveling record convention I bought the Funkasaurus boot at. I had been listening to Curtis ALOT at the time since the Curtom label had rereleased a bunch of recordings with bonus tracks in 2000 after his death. I had never seen any boots of him, let alone any of this quality. I first seeded this show at STG back in the fall of '03 and thinking that relatively few people were familiar with him, I penned an introduction to persuade downloaders to check him out. Little did I know, there were over a thousand fans waiting to grab it. Since others who've reseeded the show since have seen fit to reprint my words, I'm including them once more. The man truly inspired me during his lifetime and continues to today. I hope he inspires you all too.
"If you haven't heard of Curtis Mayfield, do yourself a favor and give him a listen. If his superlative songwriting skills, smooth guitar licks and sweet falsetto vocals aren't enough to grab you, consider this; his messages of love, compassion, perseverance, and temperance are just as socially and politically relevant today as they were during the civil rights movement. Curtis, we miss you." -- bcc32065 (Fall '03)
