• Pensive, beautiful, lavish and utterly vital. A classic amongst classics. [Read More]
Released on his own label Curtom Records and also self-produced this debut was very much a solo project building on Mayfield's personal experiences. It moved away from the pop soul sounds of The Impressions and featured much more of a funk and psychedelic inspired sound. It was a powerful musical statement which covered many social and political concerns of the time, most famously in the single 'Move On Up' which would later be covered and sampled by many future artists including The Jam and Kanye West. The vinyl version of this reissue comes complete with original artwork and re-mastered audio, pressed on high-quality 180 gram vinyl.
