Taken from his seventh studio album, "So In Love" from Curtis Mayfield is quite simply one of my all time fave tunes. There is a purity and honesty about it that would just melt the coldest of hearts. I could quite happily just sit back and listen to Curtis' vocals all day long on a lazy Sunday, maybe with a touch of Marvin, Aretha and Al Green thrown in the mix also. The aforementioned album, "There's No Place Like America Today" is up there with the best of Curtis' work, with a combination of beautiful tracks such as "Love To The People", sitting alongside harder edged numbers like the wonderful "Billy Jack". Only seven tracks on the album but it doesn't need anymore, it is just right the way it is. It hasn't quite made it into my Top 10 album rundown but is not far off it...
So In Love
