It's June of 1964 and the Civil Rights Act is close to passing. Soul singer, Curtis Mayfield is celebrating his 22nd birthday and a few days later, along with his group The Impressions, he releases a song imparting the strength to Keep on Pushin. Today we're kicking things off with a powerful selection from Mr. Mayfield on his birthday and so much more.
Mr. Lynch keeps it eclectic with his song suggestions! 😄 https://t.co/viFREeOHpk— Morning Becomes Eclectic (@mbeKCRW)
