Superfly (1972/1997)
2CD Edition With Demos And Outtakes

The mother of all blaxploitation soundtracks, from one of soul/R&B’s most consistently excellent artists. Yeah, there are other great black film scores, Shaft, Trouble Man, Black Caesar… but the smooth, soulful Superfly, and more specifically Curtis Mayfield, has no peer. Truth be told, this 2CD edition is a bit of a stretch. The original 70s album and almost all of this set’s instrumentals and demos would have fit onto a single CD. But label wiz kids added a 7 minute spoken word interview as an excuse to stretch this 25th Anniversary Edition to a higher price point. No matter. It’s all good… and we’re not jacking up the price here @ The Boat. (@320)
