My favourite Soul band - The Impressions. Here's a little teaser from the highly recommended "Movin' On Up - The Music And Message Of Curtis Mayfield And The Impressions" DVD.

Wonderful sound... I hear it for the very first time, I only knew Mayfields`s soundtrack for "Superfly" before". Was this recorded in 1968?

Recorded and released as a single A-side in 1967. It also was the title track of the LP with that title in 1968. All 60s albums of the Impressions (including Mayfield) are reissued on CD, for a start I recommend "Definitive Impressions", a compilation with most of their hits and some B-sides.

I remember this song being banned from the radio when I was a kid but was played at my parents house parties. Great memory.

The Impressions are perhaps the most undderated group in all of modern music.

I love love love the music of Mayfield and The Impressions, it's the soundtrack of

the movement of black people in the 60s.

the audience is so apathetic..OMG...Curtis has  to force on their applauding and supporting ...

Great Memories! Curtis Mayfield had great messages in his music and what a soulful sound!

Curtis Mayfield......soulful and meaningful songs with a great message! Wow, how this song brings back such great memories when I lived in Los Angeles and there were "record hop" dances........

God Bless you,
