Curtis Mayfield - Live at Montreux 1987

Curtis Mayfield was one of the dominant figures of soul music for three decades. From his breakthrough in the early sixties with The Impressions, through his ground breaking solo work in the seventies, to his more mature songs in the eighties he remained a hugely influential figure. The accident that paralyzed him in 1990 deprived everyone of any new work from then until his death in 1999 but his music has continued to inspire artists from across the musical spectrum.
This performance, filmed at the Montreux Jazz Festival on July 18, 1987, finds Curtis in fine form. His distinctive falsetto vocals are in evidence on a track listing that spans his career from early Impressions hits through to his solo classics.
