    On this day in 1975 {June 7th} Curtis Mayfield performed "Billy Jack", "Jesus", and "When Seasons Change" on the nationally syndicated television program, 'Soul Train'...
    All three songs were from his 1975 studio album, 'There's No Place Like America Today', and on July 13th, 1975 the album peaked at #13 {for 1 week} on Billboard's Top R&B Albums chart...
    Between 1970 and 1997 the Chicago native, as a solo artist, had thirty records on Billboard's Hot R&B Singles chart, six made the Top 10 with his biggest hit being "Freddie's Dead", it peaked at #2* {for 2 weeks} in 1972...
    As a member of the Impressions he had twenty nine records on the Hot R&B Singles chart...
    Curtis Lee Mayfield passed away at the young age of 57 on December 26th, 1999...
    May both he and Don Cornelius {1936 - 2012} R.I.P.
    * For the two weeks that "Freddie's Dead" was at #2 on the Hot R&B Singles chart, the #1 record for both those weeks was "I'll Be Around" by the Spinners

    I love this record!! Mayfield was a musical genius who was ahead of his time, he laid the ground work for many artists who followed, i.e. Hendrix, Prince, Sly, Marley, Kravitz, Weller, Baby Face, Harper, Seal, among others....
    Curtis's music is timeless, and his music and message will live on forever!!

    • @crunkaholic81
      @crunkaholic81 4 роки тому +5

      Curtis and Hendrix along with sly stone and bob Marley were all contemporaries similar in age although they all had their own niche for different audiences. Curtis was a huge influence on traditional r&b and what would become modern r&b and by extension black guitar players and he truly did inspire the many other artist you list who came to fame after the 70s

    "times make you suffer/when seasons change/can't call call no names/when you got your own self to blame" - so deep it depresses me coz of the fact of it and the fact that many people don't see it. one of the most perceptive songs ever written by a man who specialised in it... he so badly needs to be MORE recognised amongst the greats!

    When season change,
    tears are calling,
    Will you answer the phone,
    Somebodys feeling alone.
    Heart broken ,
    don't know which way to turn,
    trusting in
    anyone,
    Who showing them concern.
    Only to be let down again,
    Screaming why me God,
    I don't wanna give up,
    But life's getting to be so hard.
    What is the answer to my problems,
    How do i solve'em,
    When season's change,
    People are in desaray,
    don't know which to go,
    Steady trying to find their way.
    Looking for love ,
    In all the wrong places,
    Judging each other by wealth and faces.
    Remember the one you turn down,
    that didn't meet your qualification,
    Could have been the same one that would have ease all your frustrations.
    When seasons change,
    People seem to be always in rush,
    Pretending their looking for love,
    When all they want is lust.
    Only to be left sad and broken hearted , laying in their bed with tears in there eye,
    Praying they can take it all back,
    Because the person truly loved them and they made them cry.
