Originally released in 1971, just months before his legendary Superfly. Mayfield's second release as a solo artist, Roots delivers everything that we expect vintage Curtis to deliver - non-stop, back-to-back, soul-drenched R&B - but Curtis was not just a R&B singer. He was a talented producer, songwriter, label owner, and perhaps most importantly, a man with a message - a message of black pride and peace -openly criticizing the war in Vietnam the abhorrent condition of America's inner cities. 7 tracks including: "Keep On Keeping On", "Beautiful Brother of Mine", "Get Down", "Underground", "Get Down", and "We Got to Have Peace". Also available on CD (SPOT 526).
