In 1972, Curtis Mayfield’s Super Fly soundtrack topped the U.S. album charts for four consecutive weeks, becoming one of the most successful and influential soul records of its time. Featuring hit singles “Freddie’s Dead” and “Superfly,” the album’s socially charged themes and smooth funk rhythms helped it out-gross the film it was made for. Super Fly remains a defining work in Mayfield’s career and a landmark moment in the history of soul and funk music. | Jams 'N' Cocktails TV
