Neil D | Greatest protest singer of the sixties (99* d) | RE: Greatest protest singer of the sixties | 30 May 20 |
Curtis Mayfield: "Keep On Pushing"; "People Get Ready"; "We're a Winner". "Keep On Pushing" was the favorite sing-a-longs of the Freedom Riders and often used by MLK Jr at his rallies. His activism continued into the 70s with stark portrayals of the dark side of ghetto life ("Freddie's Dead") and the anti-war album "Back to the World". |
