Curtis Mayfield – Roots | Album of the day 22nd February 2021

Curtis Mayfield’s second solo album ‘Roots’ is from 1971. It has a similar feel to his fantastic debut ‘Curtis’. ‘Get Down’ and ‘Beautiful Brother of mine’ have his familiar heavy grooves. ‘Underground’ is an atmospheric and deeply funky mid tempo track. ‘We got to have peace’ has Curtis naturally optimistic message. ‘Now You’re Gone’ and ‘Love to keep in mind’ are beautiful string laden Chicago Soul.
