Move On Up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's sad to say that I was @ Wingate Field in Brooklyn, NY when the accident happened which eventually caused his death, years later.
A Legend with Soul Music!

I certainly remember Curtis Mayfield and carry a special place in my heart for his music creations. As a child of the 60's, his songs "People Get Ready" and "Move On Up" drove the passions of those who wanted to overcome.
Bess his memory...

I miss the music of Curtis Mayfield,but his
music will live on.CM was a visionary,one
of the very best.With compositions like,
"This Is My Country,People Get Ready,The
Makings of You and "If there's A Hell Below
(We all gonna Go)not to forget "Move On
Up"...an anthem for all people.I am truly
surprised that there are no comments about such a true American artist,but sadly
as we all know that most people easily
forget.I will always remember this Giant
Artist of Creative Music.Mr.Curtis Mayfield.
I am not sure, but maybe it was CURTIS MAYFIELD that gave us the first records that were termed DISCO!!! I've been searching, a long tome, researching a long time. While there may be earlier songs that could be defined as DISCO today, when they were released they were called R&B or soul, or pop. FREDDIE'S DEAD and SUPERFLY were DISCO from their first release. Curtis was responsible for a lot of great things, a lot of great songs and recordings, but if I am right, this is his greatest achievement, starting DISCO!!! Tell me that I am wrong!! After SUPERFLY there was DISCO!! Before SUPERFLY there wasn't DISCO!!! It is that simple, isn't it????
