Producer: Curtis Mayfield. Bill Inglot. Engineers include: Roger Anfinsen. Recorded at RCA Studios, Chicago, Illinois and Bell Sound Studios, New York, New York. As leader of the Impressions, Curtis Mayfield brought a lyricism to soul music. As a solo artist he chronicled society's travails and "street" culture, which in turn inspired SUPERFLY, the soundtrack to one of the era's most popular "blaxploitation" movies. Mayfield's gift for combining light melody with simple, but chilling, wordplay ensured that the album stood up on its own terms without visual images, and its lynchpin selection, "Freddy's Dead," was a million-selling single in its own right. Sympathetic but not sentimental, SUPERFLY set new standards for soul music. Producer: Curtis Mayfield. Reissue producers: David McLees, Bill Inglot. Engineers include: Roger Anfinsen.
