Superfly
Curtis Mayfield

Damn, that shit was groovy. No wonder it went on to outshine the movie it spawned from. My biggest (and really only) issue is how frontloaded it feels, with my 3 favourites from the album being the first 3 songs. Everything after it feels more incidental and (as it very much is) backing tracks to set pieces of the movie. I think the biggest downside to these is the either lack or absence from Mayfields vocals. That being said the album has a song called Junkie Chase so what the hell am I even doing complaining about this I was also going to review the movie itself as a little side piece but couldn't find a reliable streaming version of it.
