I first heard Curtis Mayfield when I received his "Superfly" single for Christmas 1972. I received a few records that Christmas but "Superfly" left a deep groove cut into my musical mind. The intro to the song with it's solo bass line and rototom drums (which I thought were bongos until I looked the song up for this post) gave a sound that I hadn't heard before that pulled me in. In 1972 I was 7 years old and had my own stereo and a travel record player my parents let me ttake where ever I went. That "Superfly" 45 RPM 7 inch went with me everywhere for a couple years. That's when I was given a portable 8-track player and stated carrying tapes instead. That songs intro and Curtis' smooth soulful voice started me on my journey through "The Funk" and quickly lead to Parliament/Funkadelic, but that's another story.
