to me it doesn't get any better than curtis mayfield and barry white. i own 2 copies of the super fly soundtrack and it stays in heavy rotation with me along his other albums like roots, sweet exorcist (very underrated album), curtis, back to the world, and there's no place like america today. curtis' run in the 70's was nothin' short of excellent and captivatin'.
