CLASSIC 1975 ALBUM FROM SOUL GREAT

One of the most influential performers, writers and producers of the 20th Century, Curtis Mayfield managed to combine some of the greatest soul ever recorded with thought provoking lyrics tackling the key social political issues of the time.

1975’s There’s No Place Like America Today alongside all the other classic albums he recorded for his own label Curtom Records remain as testament to his genius.

As well as the sweet-sounding groove of the hit single ‘So In Love’, the album’s somewhat darker highlights include its anti-gun opener, ‘Billy Jack’, the gospel-inspired ‘Jesus’ and Mayfield’s look at contemporary American culture, ‘Hard Times’.

This digipack edition features the original album’s artwork, a striking image of a black unemployment line queuing in front of a huge billboard advertising a family saloon car.
