This is album is awesome. Top-tier funky music with both intellectual and casual listening appeal. There's just so much going on with the guitar, bass, drum set, not to mention the various palm drums in the background. Curtis Mayfield is the star of the show, of course, a brilliant lyricist, vocalist, and songwriter. With various funky jams, such as "Little Child Runnin' Wild", "Pusherman", "Superfly", and "Freddie's Dead" opposing slower tracks such as "Think", "Give Me Your Love", and "No Thing On Me", it's an album that simply can't fail to put you in a good mood. If someone dislikes this album, they must be a real stick-in-the-mud. 10/10

On my list of favorite albums of all time:

Boards of Canada - Music Has the Right to Children
Curtis Mayfield - Super Fly
Tom Waits - Rain Dogs
