"Keep On Pushing" #10 7/18/1964 Bonus

From July 1964, an anthem of the civil rights movement by the Impressions. Front man Curtis Mayfield knew he'd need to keep the message low-key but still powerful to get any kind of airplay. It took on a whole new meaning to keep striving when Curtis became wheelchair-bound after a stage accident in 1990. He was certainly one of the most admired people in soul music of the 60's.
