Curtis Mayfield's explosive and politically charged soul is bold, impactful and irresistible. It's easy to gloss over all the lyrical themes in Mayfield's music and just enjoy the infectious grooves, but it would be neutering his work. Songs like 'Beautiful Brother of Mine' linked Mayfield to broader political movements and songs like 'We Gotta Have Peace' are sadly still relevant today in a continuously desolate and war-stricken world.
