Something special tonight. Something for a special day. The legendary Curtis Mayfield in Concert at The Marcus Garvey Centre in London, recorded by the BBC in June of 1984.

As a powerful force in the world of Music, Mayfield was a catalyst in the raising of social consciousness in the 1960s and 70s. Beyond the string of  hit Soundtrack albums he was involved in, he also wrote and recorded some of the most memorable music of the time.

  1. mp3′s no longer go directly to itunes. Is it me or have things changed.

    • iTunes has a prompt in their Preferences that asks if you want mp3′s to open in iTunes automatically, ask you first or ignore. At least that’s what my version says. Check your iTunes Preferences and see what it asks.
