Curtis Mayfield’s version is on 1974′s album “No Place Like America Today”; but the version John Legend remade (almost exactly) is the circa 1969 cut by Chicago-based bluesy funk rockers Baby Huey and the Babysitters. Baby Huey tragically died in 1970, the same year as Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin.

My friend didn’t believe that the John Legend and Roots track called “Hard Times” was a curtis song; but I had no idea it had an even earlier version. And the interview is a nice touch
