Whether a review is positive, negative, or neutral, we always publish it. However, we screen every review to ensure it is authentic and free of profanity. These checks happen automatically, though a human occasionally steps in. We never pay for reviews.
Back in the early '80s, you could snag copies of this and other Curtis Mayfield albums for a song. I grabbed this one for around 50p in 1982 and picked up Short Eyes for just 25p. Albums like There's No Place Like America Today, Back To The World, Roots, and even Superfly, I got for less than a quid each. The reason was simple—nobody was interested back then, just before sampling became a big deal. Curtis and James Brown were the unsung heroes of funk... and by the late '70s/early '80s, they'd gotten tangled up in the disco craze, which kinda ruined their rep. It was even before the Rare Groove revival brought funk back in the mid '80s.This album, 'Got To Find A Way,' has to be one of CM's best. The grooves are raw, stripped-down funk, so pure. Unbelievable quality. I was lucky enough to catch Curtis around 1983—great memories.
It's disappointing that in his otherwise well-researched book «Funk», Ricky Vincent overlooks this album (ess. Funk albums, last pages). Also, there's a rainbow on the cover, but sorry, this isn't relevant to current events. In the Bible, the rainbow symbolized the covenant between humanity and God.
I couldn't find my copy on the list, so I clicked "Your version not on Discogs? Add a release." Now it's showing up as a separate release under Curtis Mayfield, and I can't delete it. It took a lot of effort to input all the details...I'm not sure what to do now...GNUlars
Fantastic pressing and audio quality! Picked up this copy today, and it's sounding so crisp and clear – even better than many of the pressings you can find nowadays 😊
