Curtis Mayfield R.I.P.

The death of Curtis Mayfield left a huge hole in the world of soul music and was, I think, sadly undereported in the press. But the man who gave the world "Superfly," "People Get Ready," and "Move On Up," among many other classics, finally gets his due at this excellent fan website. Read Curtis' biography, view digital images of him from all the stages of his career, and hook up with Mayfield memorabilia collectors right from the main page. The proprietor has also thoughtfully provided a guestbook where you can write your condolences and share your memories of this visionary American musician.
