- The Songs Curtis should be remembered for.

The ones that made him unique as a songwriter and musician.

There are some glaring omissions like "Gypsy Woman" and

"We're A Winner" which was the motto of his own Curtom label.

But if you only can only afford 1 Curtis Mayfield recording this is the most complete. His years with the Impressions,Donny Hathaway and solo. The patriotism of "This is My Country" juxtaposed against "If There's A Hell Below" which showed curtis

knew Ghetto rap before the term existed. Not his best known but

his most signicant music.
