I had the privilege to see Mr. Curtis Mayfield downtown FT LAUDERDALE at the Musician Exchange and I sat right next to the Stage it was a night I will always remember thanks for lifting our Vibration
Mr. Curtis Mayfield. One of the most prolific singer, songwriter, musicians of my (and perhaps) any generation. Thanks for the upload, Multiplicityme2too. Blessings
brother dat should not never be forgotten! I want let it happens, contributed much to the music industry ; " we the people whose darker than blue ", we are not sitting around as we use to."
Curtis Mayfield was a man whose music was dedicated to aiding Black people gain the emotional, mental, and physical strength needed to break the the soul-killing bonds of racist oppression which surrounded them every single day in racist white America.
Leroy Bennett Thank You, Leroy Bennett. I am truly pleased you enjoyed the video I created for this magnificent and relevant piece of art from brother Curtis, the music genius!
Gregory Marsaw I disagree Curtis Mayfield was a smooth brother, He can open a sister's mind with real talk like this song, then lay her down with "Give Me Your Love" or "I'm A Fool For Ya"
Wow, this brother's music speaks to generations of people all over the world! Still relevant today in 2020! Pardon Me Brother! For tomorrow can be a brighter Day! Wake up everybody and help each other! Love one another! RIP Mr Curtis May field
I have always loved this song. I didn't hear it until my late 30's. I have to say that Multiplicityme2too has captured the essence of this poignant Curtis Mayfield composition to near perfection. Great video!
Love this song for the "Sign o' the Times" (Prince reference) Curtis was not only a legendary artist/entertainer but an activist and talented poet/lyricist 🥰 what the world needs now is his soul filled message to stamp out the hate and prejudice running rampant more than ever in these turbulent times.
Listening to this song....Jussie Smollett brought me here...his attack. A stark reminder that prejudice still exists, kept plump & alive by the hate of this divided nation. Thought of this song after hearing the news.... Curtis come back, you had the right idea for sure.
June 3rd: Happy birthday Singer-songwriter-composer-musician/guitarist-Activist Curtis Mayfield; Grammy Legend Award, Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, Grammy Hall of Fame; double-inductee Rock & Roll Hall of Fame...Solo artist and as member of The Impressions. Perhaps the most prolific songwriter-arranger of this or any generation (1942-1999) Thank you and God bless. RIP Genius. thanks for the upload, Multiplicityme2too. Blessings
the very first time I heard this tune, I chuckled a little. And when my chuckling concluded, I heard the Poet speak. And I gained understanding and insight.
I didn't want to 'thumbs up' this video, I wanted to 'HEART' this video!! Curtis Mayfield has always been deep, but when he decided to use his music to empower... he went in and gave it his all! Thank you, and RIP Curtis Mayfield. Today they pay these too lazy to think, sampling idiot rappers and singers so much money to put out lyrics that's mindless, misogynistic and over-sexualized, while still projecting that gang mentality with the constant slamming of each other's success as long as it's backed up by a tight beat. SMH!!
Beautifully lush version with the pure and applied funk of the Afrikan drum solo @1:53 However, this isn't the one recorded at The Bitter End as that one is a delightful 8 min. 44 seconds long. Any Dr. Curtis Mayfield scholars here, I'm looking to locate where and when the version in this UA-cam video was recorded.
No. This is the original Bitter End version. The one that’s on current copies of the Curtis Live album is a modernized remake loaded with electric drums and synths and all that. I’ve had the CD of this album for 20+ years. I don’t know why this version was replaced on the current digital copies.

thank you *
Black man's messanger !!!!!!!!!!!
2017,... why is this song still relevant?
The rappers have a lot to answer for, gloryfying everything that undermines black people, immoral sex, drugs, violence, murder, hate, the list goes on
You are quite welcome.
Fire!
fast forward to today and it is out of control.
!
Well,we do have a black president.
