Yes its Funky Friday folks & Freddie's Dead. Still dead after all these years.
Curtis Mayfield's warning shot got lost in the blizzard as the seventies faded into the blood-soaked eighties,
as Cocaine and then crack flooded the streets and emergency rooms across America.
Maybe he shouldn't have sugar-coated the message.... MORE

WE GOT TO HAVE PEACE by CURTIS MAYFIELD
We got have peace
To keep the world alive
And war to cease.
We got to have joy,

It could be such a sweet romance
And the s... MORE
