Curtis Mayfield · David Axelrod · Adrian Younge

Commonly regarded as one of the first concept albums in soul, this dark 1973 masterpiece combines the lush orchestral arrangements of Isaac Hayes collaborator Dale Warren with blaxploitation-style funk grooves. Its haunting sound rocketed it to cult-classic status among DJs and producers, sampled for tracks by Kendrick Lamar, Jay-Z, Digable Planets, Dr. Dre, and many more. This 180-gram reissue was cut at Ardent on the original Stax lathe and pressed in Memphis, housed in an old-school tip-on jacket with new liner notes by Stax historian Rob Bowman.
