Curtis was a freakin genius. love all his stuff.

@eddiemeeks7133 11 месяцев назад

Yes he was was....i saw him in concert right before hus death

@827dusty Год назад

The great Curtis Mayfield. So many songs. "Superfly," "Pusher Man," "Junkie Chase," "Fred is Dead." What an amazing singer and guitarist. Jimi Hendrix and Curtis played together for a while in the mid 60s, until Jimi went solo and became a superstar. Please, more Curtis Mayfield.

@morrison62 Год назад

Mayfield was a producer, writer, composer, and performer. Back in the 60's and 70's, Chicago cranked out alot of music from Sam Cooke, Lou Rawls, Donnie Hathaway,and Earth, Wind, and Fire, just to name a few. Certain places at certain times in history were music hotbeds. Asia had mentioned that this may be disco, but this is actually pre-disco. However, I think disco came out of R&B and Philly soul. Philly soul had not only the beat, but great orchestration and arrangements in the backend. Groups like Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes, the Ojays, and MFSB(theme song for SOUL TRAIN) sounded like early disco to me. Disco was like 80's metal and grunge in that copycats and subpar performers got in and watered the early talent pool down. I always like the arrangements that Mayfield put in his music. I think he finally left Chicago and moved to Atlanta in the 80's

@kellywann3794 Год назад

I was so pleased seeing you cover Mr. Mayfield. He’s one of the greatest!

@kevincorrigan7893 Год назад

This was the single version? There's a longer version but either way it's greatness. Love this reaction to Curtis. Musical genius.

@aquemeni1979 Год назад

The longer original version is magnificent

@randyjennings6412 Год назад

One of my favorite artists from that time period. Curtis is the best.

@surlechapeau Год назад

Asia & BJ, you’ll love his “Superfly” and "Freddie's Dead"!! Top 10 hits.

@mrbuttons1243 Год назад

And Pusherman!

@rogersletten2724 Год назад

The hole SUPERFLAY album is great

@MsBD7 Год назад

You can not be sad or upset hearing this song. Curtis Mayfield was a treasure! Love this song 🎵 ❤️

@donONE777 Год назад

we as a people need this song today more than we needed it back then because we were motivated to be better and do better

@klasseact6663 Год назад

Kinda applies to everyone really🤔

@lindazee Год назад

Yes!!! What a unique, talented artist we had in Curtis Mayfield! One of my favorites all the way back to his days with The Impressions, but his solo work went to a whole other level. Takes me back to the early 70s...a grittier but more authentic time. Gone way too soon 😕

@jayjordan7104 Год назад

Made a photo montage for recent high school graduates during ceremonies with this as the music. Lots of tears, lots of hugs.

@54nomore Год назад

"If There's a Hell Below Were All Going to Go" This was one of his biggest hits. He was shining a light on us all. It is worth a listen to. Rest In Peace Curtis.

@ujimajame4601 Год назад

Check out both the live (at the Bitter End) and the studio versions! They were both equally phenomenal!

@cteal2018 Год назад

Homie literally calls out everyone at the beginning of the song

@ronpotter9810 Год назад

Curtis wrote so much great music, for himself & others. Gone to soon!

@terribanks8633 Год назад

Not disco! Pure soul!

@tylerhackner9731 Год назад

You’ll love superfly

@anthonyf8121 Год назад

Curtis Mayfield and the Impressions “I’m so Proud” 60’s Soul! You’ll love this one!

@hak4890 Год назад

Love it! Great song; love CM and you two! Yes! You cannot sit still during this song!! 👍👍❤️❤️

@scoopv Год назад

this song was a 70's black power movement. telling black people post civil rights movement for black people claiming their power

@willinghamsctt Год назад

Superfly. Whole album.

@frankb4517 Год назад

Pure unadulterated genius!

@kylehopkins1180 Год назад

This was long before disco. Cutis was the sound of the movement. He wrote uplifting songs for our people. Yes Afros and blue jeans and soul!

@shannonk.moorer9158 11 месяцев назад

This was a vicious edit. It's almost cut in half. To Asia's comment, it's still one of my favorite road songs and I always run it multiple times.

@paulprendergast3184 Год назад

Curtis Mayfield is a gem!

@amymikesparks2699 Год назад

Give “Keep On Keeping On” a listen. It’s phenomenal!

@timmistorey5989 Год назад

"Just be thankful " great song.

@jacqueline4514 Год назад

Hell Yes!!! Now this is uplifting soul!!! ❤️

@kianpa1 Год назад

Great message in this song. ❤

@apostle6100 Год назад

Curtis was one of my first musical heroes...

@garyhughes2382 Год назад

Ha-Ha! Bj's look when music started like he wanted to break his polyester leisure suit and bling out!🤗

@stevehand4253 Год назад

Good pick guys 👍

@toddmorgan2628 Год назад

Mayfield was incredible. Taken from us too young. Think of all the music we never got the chance to experience.

@redcardinalist 8 месяцев назад

Curtis Mayfield - such a great artist.❤ Was this song in "Superfly"? My vague memory says so.

@mildredpierce4506 Год назад

Curtis Mayfield was prolific singer songwriter. The entire Superfly album is top notch.

@jmua8450 5 месяцев назад

Curtis was a true original.

@richardmartin9565 Год назад

'Movin' on up" was also part of the Jefferson's theme song

@oldschoolbasketball1197 Год назад

React to his Pushaman it was the same for Chance’s like this is the sample for Ye’s Touch the Sky

@eddiemeeks7133 11 месяцев назад

One of the greatest artist...when I was in the Army...he was all we listen to...this song brings back such great times!

@bluesrock1 Год назад

It wasn't meant to be disco, but it does have a groove. Curtis was considered a voice of struggling Americans.

@ujimajame4601 Год назад

I'm not surprised that this blew you away! Curtis Mayfield (with or without The Impressions) provided the soundtrack for the Civil Rights Movement and was literally the "Martin Luther King of Black Music." Equally captivating were both his live and studio versions of "(Don't Worry) If There's A Hell Below We're All Gonna Go", "Freddie's Dead", "Between You And Me, Baby" with Linda Clifford, the live version of "The Makings of You" and both "I'm So Proud" and "Check Out Your Mind" which he made with The Impressions. Not only was he a performer but he was a songwriter, producer, record company owner and visionary! Another song in this same vein was "Hush Child" by The Stairsteps, a family group Curtis often produced that was discovered by one of the members of The Impressions, that scored heavily with "Ooh Child" and "All Night Thang" (under the name "Invisible Man's Band").

@robertmarsh2291 Год назад

When Mayfield was front man with The Impressions, they did what was referred to as a call song: "We're A Winner". Also released at time were hits such as "I've Been Trying" and "People Get Ready". And one of the most popular albums for Brothers in Viet Nam was "Back To The World".

@erolbulut2584 10 месяцев назад

The pride of Cabrini-Green, my Chicago brother. RIP

@crazydale1000 Год назад

I forgot about this song. Curtis was a bad man. I used to work in a detail shop. Me and 15 black guys. It was constantly Motown and R&B. I got schooled. Those guys taught my white ass how to dance. Great guys to work with.

@patrickscutella836 Год назад

No way is this disco, no way. This is hard core R&B

@Lee.ELIXIR Год назад

Another voice of an angel along with Marvin Gaye and many many others 💗🤍💙🇬🇧☮️😉👊🏼

@maggotbrain7499 9 месяцев назад

This was no disco. This is spiritual music. He is talking to your mind.

@Greyareas27 Год назад

This came before the disco era. Remember too that disco was just about dancing and having a good time. Brothers like Curtis had a lot more to say in their songs.

@marvelharris9540 Год назад

this is a total classic!

@RenR70 Год назад

Luv Curtis Mayfield, from the early stuff with Jerry Butler & the Impressions to the 70’s beautiful conscious music.

@donaldwhite1928 Год назад

Superfly

@OlleStahlberg Год назад

He WAS the 70’s 😎 Try his She don’t let nobody (but me) 👌🏼✨

@randomnstoned966 Год назад

Curtis Mayfield makes me happy no matter what, absolute legend!

@cynthiaschultheis1660 Год назад

Curtis Mayfield great tunes. The film "Dark Shadows" with Johnny Depp (hilarious) soundtrack is this album. He does the theme from "Shaft"

@WilliamBrown-pk8hd Год назад

His work with the Impressions is just as good: "Woman's Got Soul", "Keep On Pushing", "You Must Believe Me" and "We're A Winner" wish is where "Move On Up" was derived from

@Manolo-sv2pk 11 месяцев назад

A Real musician, genius

@JerseyShoreCollector Год назад

That bongo drum is insane

@michaelasay8587 Год назад

Can dance to this!!!

@t.r.1708 Год назад

Loved him with the Impressions! “Gypsy woman!”

@amccoll73 Год назад

Keep On Keeping On guys !!!

@MrSevere51 Год назад

Great song, there's an extended version to "Move on up" by the Great Curtis Mayfield. Another listen from Mayfield is "Don't worry, if there's hell below, we're all gonna go". It'll blow your mind!🤩🤩!

@SRG1966 Год назад

This was pre-disco, early 70s soul/funk. Hugely influential.

@lobo667-z1e 10 месяцев назад

Man hope you will react to little child running wild. Incredible song by the Genius Curtis Mayfield 👏

@giuliogrifi7739 Год назад

"Move On Up" - 1970.....now you know the record where disco music took inspiration from !!!

@paulward1799 9 месяцев назад

It's all about taking the next step!

@williamlovett619 Год назад

Now we're talking!!

@johnscharff7830 Год назад

you guys gotta' check out the movie "Groove Tube"(1974) where they use "Move On Up" in the second skit with the hippie hitchhiker!

@JW-eq3vj Год назад

The extended version is much better. There are some live versions on RU-vid that are amazing. This was the radio cut. A lot of radio stations didn't want to play tracks longer than 3 minutes so a lot of artists made a shortened radio version of their songs.

@christineremmer5514 Год назад

Great tune,got this old lady moving, love from Darlington uk 💕

@FuturologyTheMusical Год назад

Real musical genius! Such an important artist.

@curtphillipps7830 5 месяцев назад

No way they are that old and have never heard this song before

@CanadianPunker62 Год назад

Curtis Mayfield is great. Check out Pusherman, If There's a Hell Below, We're All Gonna Go, The Makings of You,

@thomasbanks641 Год назад

The extended version of this song is the only version worth listening to, great saxophone solo

@0Johnny0 Год назад

One of my favorite songs of all time! I mean how can you sit still.....

@bashab3098 Год назад

This song has been covered by many bands , I 1st heard it on Setting Suns by the jam in 1979 .

@jamesmarshall4364 Год назад

Asia, you hit that line perfectly at 1:59! Who needs auto-tune, huh??

@franklopez2803 Год назад

Can you believe Jerry Butler and Curtis Mayfield in the same group? The Impressions

@musicairplanes4884 Год назад

Was lucky enough to see him perform at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium in the early 70's.

@furniturereply6213 Год назад

BJ said, " unlearn then re learn" Good smart stuff right there!

@franksullivan1873 Год назад

Alright now ,y’all are jamming to some Curtis.

@liveorexist3661 Год назад

@michaelasay8587 Год назад

Wasn't this done by others? Disco in the 70s..... fantastico

@user-lu6sy2oo1d 7 месяцев назад

My salad days ...amazing sounds of the 70's

@j.e.8018 Год назад

Curtis Mayfield would be upset with Her calling this Song Disco 🎵 it's just Inspiring Soul Jammin.

@waltw4537 Год назад

Always loved Curtis. Gone too soon. Thank you.

@willfromyadkinville Год назад

i wore this 8 Track out!

@jacqueline4514 Год назад

Please 🙏 Asia and BJ, react to D-Train’s “KEEP ON” for one of the ultimate uplifting 80’s R&B songs; just saw him live last week at the Legends of Vinyl Hall of Fame Award ceremony in Queens, NY. You will LOVE IT!❤🔥

@omar1545 9 месяцев назад

Damn I just remeber hearing this when my granny cleaned up the house and I was doin chores with her but uh yeah let’s jus say when it was on I seemed to get a lot more shit DONE!!! you feel me?

@plawrence8083 Год назад

Another great anthem song for those pushing for change in the US in the 1970s. Bj has got it. Much love to you guys.

@eugenehechler8608 Год назад

its about time you got around curtis mayfield {freddies dead}

@johnfrank3177 Год назад

Hey Asia and BJ. You should also check out "We're A Winner" by Curtis Mayfield and the impressions. Peace.

@traviswooten5872 Год назад

Asia. This is not disco. This is R&B,Soul. 1970.

@rayjennings3637 Год назад

I have no idea who was playing the Conga drums but he was killing it!

@generfeld Год назад

Soul is a pretty cool genre, very powerful music. very introspective and great stuff. His first album here, the Soul music is very theatrical and sounds like a full orchestra. We People Darker than Blue is probably the most powerful song on this album. you MUST listen to that one. Anyway, his later music got more into Funk, giving it a broader appeal. Soul is not as easy-listening because its such serious powerful music (which is fine)

@berlintpke6909 Год назад

Unique voice

@kabirahnazeem9403 Год назад

Thats what I'm talking about. You guys are finally playing R&B. And no this isn't disco its pure R&B! Now listen to ISSAC HAYES he was considered the Black Moses of music. React to his music SHAFT theme song from self titled movie SHAFT starring RICHARD ROUNDTREE. It came out during what was called Blackplotation movies
