b'The \\u201cCurtis\\u201d LP including \\u201cChoice of Colors\\u201d sold well at the time charting at number one on the Billboard Black albums for five non-consecutive weeks and at number 19 on the Billboard Pop album charts. Only the single \\u201c(Don\\u2019t Worry) If There\\u2019s a Hell Below, We\\u2019re All Going to Go\\u201d charted in the United States; however, an edited version of \\u201cMove On Up\\u201d would spend 10 weeks in the top 50 of the UK singles chart. In 1972, the French Academy of Jazz awarded Mayfield\\u2019s \\u201cCurtis\\u201d prize for best R&B record. Mayfield won a Grammy Legend Award in 1994 and a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 1995. He is a double inductee into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of the Impressions in 1991, and again in 1999 as a solo artist. He also was a two time Grammy Hall of Fame inductee.

Please consider purchasing \\u201cChoice of Colors\\u201d by Curtis Mayfield.
