About

For all the empathetic message-making in Curtis Mayfield’s music through the ’70s, the Chicago soul great’s perceptive lyrics and yearning falsetto always made the political seem acutely personal. On his fifth album, <i>Sweet Exorcist</i>, Mayfield demonstrates that talent most powerfully in the title track, a passionate plea for spiritual and emotional liberation that makes cunning use of a certain horror-movie title; “Power to the People” is an incredibly funky defense of America’s most vulnerable in a time of strife.
